The speed of the motor attached to another robot in the
video shows that its speed is significantly slower than
the 71427 motors supplied with the RCX 1.0 to 2.0.  I
suggest more like 60-100rpm rather than 300.  This gives
more torque for the same amount of electric current.

in the video I counted about eight revolutions in 5 seconds,
that would put it at about 96 rpm.

(...) Although I think there's two things to watch out for here. First, if you have continuous monitoring of the encoders, you could have speed control (in other words, the speed in the video may not be the maximum, but something less). Second, (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)

The problem with gearing down motors in order to exchange RPM for torque is that if you actually NEED RPM rather than torque then you have to gear them back up again. If you have a high RPM motor to start with, you have to gear it down in order to (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)
