Re: Motors Vs Motors
One interesting thing of note is that the AM Planetary Gearbox (with a FP motor) can be substituted (mechanically) for the CIM. The gearbox is designed with the same output shaft and the same mounting screw positions. I am not indicating that it is a POWER substitute for the CIM ... I am just saying that the form factor and RPM end up similar...)
The planetary is also geared in such a way that you get approximately the same RPM out of it that you do with a CIM (but of course spinning the FP at its normal high rate...)
If, in the off season, you might like to do some testing ... this makes it very easy to try the FP or even the 545 motor without changing your setup that you were using with a CIM previously.
This is some really good planning on the part of AndyMark... they really do have some well thought out products.
