Re: pic: FIRST veterans knowledge needed. What kind of motors are these?

Yeah, the good old days of Mitsubishi.

FIRST had another useless motor called the "Torque Motor" (i.e. It is probably an Indiana Ghetto-linguicized version of the Mitsubishi Motor). It had the torque of my left pinkie and made one rotation every 60 seconds when geared down. The motor, including the gear box, was the size of an altoids pack. The motor itself would make an RC look proud.

Back then (it was 2001, and I was a freshman then), the main "mechanics" advisor called it "Speedy", a fairly accurate name given the description above. I had an idea for it to lift a sign, starting from the beginning of the match, that said either "Go 461" or "Schlumberger, DePuy, Purdue University, WLCSC", etc. [sponsor's names]. Some of those motors, though, were before my time.
