Thanks for your reply. The team was seeking to impliment the rotating arm system used Ri3D greenhorns into our own shooter so we wanted to reduce the rotation speed enough to be easily controllable as well as prevent as much backdrive as possible. The rationale was that a high reduction ratio 100:1 would effectively eliminate the backdrive.
