Re: pic: Planitary Transmission
It's true that the ND motor cannot be backdriven, but you may face another problem. The gear inside the ND is plastic and in high-torque applications (such as a drivetrain) it has been known to strip. I don't know what forces you're putting on it, or exactly what would be enough to destroy the motor, but be careful. Prolonged use, even below the actual stall torque of the motor, can wear down that gear.
