However, you could do this by adding 5:1 gearbox to a 6:1 gearbox.
5:1 is pretty easy to make with the 40:8 gears.  6:1 can be made
by combining the 24:8 and the 16:8.


Assuming those numbers are correct (I've been too slack to actually look
up the tooth counts), I'll give further clarification on my earlier post.
I'm using a combination of three 40:8 combos, giving me an effective ratio
of 125:1. The gearing is remarkably smooth, allowing for a clean fall of
the post, as long as the fourth axle (containing the final 8 tooth gear)
is attached only to the rotation sensor and not to any other posts.

(...) You could get close using the differential as an adder. The ratio of speeds above is about 11:1 (its 11.3:1, but lets keep things as integers). That is a prime number, and we know there aren't any lego gear options that give you an 11:1, so (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics)
