Re: Gear Drive Question

Why not run the dual motor input from VexPro or switch to a more powerful motor such as the 775pro?
You may also want to consider using belt or chain to transfer power, it may open up some better options for you.

Re: Gear Drive Question

The added length sticks outside our frame perimeter. We want the added safety of being able to stall the motor for more than 1/4 of a second without it burning out.

Re: Gear Drive Question

I misunderstood how the Dual motor input is assembled. It looks like it will fit! Thanks for getting me to double check that.

Re: Gear Drive Question

I would run 2 40t gears and the same ratio on both if you are set on using bag motors. Also, in the 4 seconds it takes a 775pro to burn out, it should be possible to have a current monitoring program shut down that mechanism. Can you provide details on what mechanism this is driving? Without knowing the application its hard to determine the best solution.
