Cool! I ask because I tend to build things that perform (robots), and I’m always
looking to find ways to speed things up. I haven’t seen a geared motor geared up
before. I have worked a lot with the old motors (ugh, never going back again),
and found that any gear train less than 6:1 would take forever to accelerate any
decently-sized object to full speed. I guess my motor experience comes from
that. Maybe my next robot will have a geartrain with a smaller number in front
of the ratio... You’re using 2:3, maybe I can get away with 3:1... Thanks for
the info, onto building!
