Re: Gearboxes for shooter?

we're using a CIM on a 9:1 Banebots planetary. Gives us more torque so the wheel doesn't slow down as much as each ball goes through, and still keeps a hefty RPM on the wheel. Also theres the added benefit of really easy direct mounting since the output shaft is a simple 1/2" OD with a 1/8" keyway. Though we are actually going to use a sprocket combination with it to give the possibility of high torque or high RPM based on what our testing shows.
