Re: Intake wheel motors
With PG71s, it's hard to get the wheel big enough for a decent tip speed. PG27s are nearly three times as fast. We used a PG-27 with a 6" wheel for our Aerial Assist pickup. For our tennis ball pickup in offseason, we used BAG motors and 5:1 reduction - plenty fast even with a 4" wheel; almost too fast for our purposes (we had a few balls jam inside until we made some adjustments).
