: In all honesty I have no idea where I got that bit of information from but I'm fairly certain I picked it up somewhere last year and I seem to remember getting it from a reliable source. So I may just be spouting off random stuff.

HEY. LAST YEAR, SOMEONE FROM TEAM 33, WHO I WORKED WITH AT WORK, TOLD ME THE MOTORS PRODUCE MORE TORQUE FORWARD THAN IN REVERSE. I TOLD HIM HE HAD BEEN SMOKIN' SOME FUNNY STUFF AND HE HAD MORE THAN A FEW SCREWS LOOSE. WELL, TO MY SUPRISE, WHEN WE WERE AT THE GREAT LAKES REGIONAL, THE BOT PULLED TO THE RIGHT. GUESS WHICH SIDE HAD THE MOTOR RUNNING IN R(FOR RACE? I SMILED, WITH FEATHERS IN MOUTH, AND TRUDGED ON FOR A REASON WHY I NOW HAD EGG ON MY OAKLEYS. TURNS OUT THAT THE WINDINGS IN THE ARMATURE ARE WOUND A PARTICULAR WAY TO PROVIDE MORE TORQUE IN FORWARD THAN IN REVERSE. TAKES MORE GRUNT TO DRIVE A SCREW THAN DOES TO PULL IT FROM ITS HOLE. BEST WAY TO OVER COME THIS"PROBLEM" IS TO RUNN BOTH MOTORS IN SAME DIRECTION. JUST PACKAGE THEM CREATIVLY. PMGRACER
