Re: AM Spinboxes

I wish I knew about these 40 tooth CIM gears a few days ago when I ordered belts and pulleys. Oh well, belts it is I guess.

We ran GT2 3mm belts on our shooter, and are very happy. Plastic pulleys + belts = lighter then gears and quieter and grease less!

Re: AM Spinboxes

We're going to be using one of these with a single CIM for our shooter. Once you factor in the support axle and sprockets they're no heavier than chain.

Re: AM Spinboxes

Had they been available earlier we may have considered them but we are going with versa-planetaries and BAG motors.
