Re: Gearbox/reduction for CIM,RS550,RS540

Typical gearbox ratios are around 10:1 to 16:1 for the CIM, and three times that for the smaller motors. You would need multiple stages of reduction, and the one connected directly to the motors will turn very fast! Gears work better...that's why we use them....
