We heard that in the past there were 6V ones which weren’t as good as the older ones that were 12V?
How is this year’s ones versus the two from the past?
Is there a hub for it in the kit or elsewhere?
The motor is the same I believe. I recomment fitting the motors to the BaneBots 36mm gearbox instead of the FP plastic crap gearbox, though.

We are back at it again. It does not look like FIRST has published the FP motor specs this year. I have searched through all my previous posts (back to 2002) and checked all the FP motor specs I have published in the past. This year’s motor is different from the 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006 motors.
One thing is certain: the motor is made by Johnson Electric. That is good news since I should be able to get the data from JE this week. Our gear on the motor is 19 teeth, but I do not know if everyone’s is the same. I will post to this thread when I get the motor data.
They are not the exact same motor but look similar. Check out the “2007 Motor Spec” thread for details on the new motors.
