Hi all....I'm looking for a good source of 9V gear motors that i could
use with the handyboard for a mobile robot. Currently, i am just using
the little 9v motors that came with the board, which i have plugged into
the cheap gearbox from a toy tank, and it is starting to fall apart.
ive found that building the drive system is the most frustrating part of

enough ones tend to be upwards of $60 each, and i need 2.
Any advice on good drive systems would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
