Mabuchi Motors

[guitarbonham]

My team has never used the mabuchi motors before and we cannot find any documentation on them. how are they supposed to be wired?

Do you use a relay?

Can you use a victor to control the speed?

what size breaker should be protecting them?

how should i connect a wire to them?

We are trying to make a roller that will give backspin to a soccer ball and be able to be reversed to give it a forward spin. we need something that spins fast. would the mabuchi motors be able to handle that? we plan on using two motors that each spin a piece of rubber which is about the size of a marshmallow for lack of a better description.
