Really struggling with the paintball magazine. So far I think I'm on about
the 6th prototype.
I'm gonna work on it some more tonight. Once I get that done, I can finish

Yah, its geared to go 5.5 MPH fully loaded.
Actual calculations are using the motors no load speed of 550RPM and

Yah, thats the venerable Simpson 260 multimeter.
I do electrical work for a living.
I own the latest fluke digital multimeter, its gotta boot up when you
turn it on!! -- its a computer!
BUT, in some situations the Simpson is better than the $450, state-of-
the-art digital

Looking good.
Just a suggestion, I've generally had a better experience with watching
YouTube videos, as they load a lot faster. Also consider having the camera
fixed, the video was a bit shaky at times.
Regardless, the progress looks good.
