Are you sure that's legally sized? It looks kinda big.

That's not a legal motor too. (Well, maybe. Supposedly some drills use a 550 or equivalent motor.)

It's 36mm by 40 mm by 24 mm or 30 mm by 32 mm by 36 mm, right?

But does this one come complete with a fog machine? I don't think so.

I guess if you stall the drill enough, it will become a fog machine

Fun fact, the $20 Harbor Freight cordless drill has a 550 motor in it. When I was building a robot on the cheap, I plunked a NeveRest motor in there with a very slight shaft modification (Dremelling a flat), and you could fit a 9015 in there the same way. And then I powered the whole robot using the battery I got for free.

(Full disclosure, I work for AndyMark that sells both NeveRest and 9015 motors.)

Thumbs up Re: pic: Week 4 Progress

Let me guess;
5+ high goal per sec
.5 sec climb
Capable of doing 15 gear cycles
All while playing field shutdown defense against the other team.

Truthfully it's probably better than that?

Just get one of those batteries that has a built in tracking system, or at least LEDs that show the state of charge. Either feature makes it a COTS computing device, therefore legalizing it.
