Very, very, very slow.
Approximately 2 degrees/second, so 0.33 RPM

I dont understand how they thought we would use this thing it says that it puts out 32" -lbs of torque and pulls 350mah when stalled. I cannot think of anything to do with this.

On its own it may prove to be dificult to find a use for it but in a gear box it would be very compact and of more use.
