FTC Motor Mount
Our team is trying to mount the FTC motor without a gearbox while direct driving some rollers.

We were wondering if any teams figured out a clean and secure way to mount the motor!

Thanks!

Re: FTC Motor Mount
The motor can be mounted with M3 screws.

Mounting "something" to the motor shaft is best done with a press fit.

Re: FTC Motor Mount
Wrapping electrical tape around the motor would make it fit into the regular mounts. It isn't perfect, but it works well enough.
