The un-geared motors are worse, because your speed reduction train will inevitably have much more friction than the reduction box Lego put in the geared motors. I ended up also (...)

| | | | | | nah. That ain't mad. *MAD* is when you put 8 of the new gearmotors in parrallel, gear them down and power them with a pair of 9.6V RC battery packs. The resulting dual-differential drive, tracked robot chassis can move quite a bit of weight with no (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jun-01, to lugnet.technic)

| | | | | | I used the "rubber" tracks like the ones that come with the RIS. They shake the chassis something awful at high speeds, though.
