Re: [TANKS] Re: 1:6 all up weight?Well George, that's advanced science for me but I can see how it works. I wonder how everything stays tight and sturdy with all these modifications Chrys

Thanks Chrys, here is the link. http://banebots.com/pc/MOTOR-BRUSH/M4-R0062-12 I did a modification to these motors as I was planning on running them at 24 volts and these already spin twice as fast as a scooter motor at 12 volts. I opened them up, replaced the 2 bushes with ball bearings and inserted a thin washer to tighten up the assembly a little. I made a face plate to join them with the head of an angle grinder, the end result was a No load Amp rating of about 1.5 with the first stage reduction included so was really happy with that result, the data states 2.7 out of the box. You do need a bigger reduction than normal with these, that's why I had to go to the pain of making a 3 stage transmission. They are similar in size to 100- 125 watt scooter motors George On 22/12/09 4:43 PM, "Chrysanthos Kanellopoulos" <xchr...@otenet.gr> wrote: Great tank and great video, George! Congrats!
