It is designed to protect the motors from stalling. It should act like a
normal gear at low torque, and the inner portion should spin at high
torques. The maximum torque is listed on the gear.

| Anyone know what this odd part is good for? One came with my RIS 1.5 system. The hub slips both ways, so it isn't a one-way clutch, and it seems to slip at low torques, so it apparently isn't a mechanical fuse. Thanks! Dave Paule (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
