Torque required for hammer to self right?

Yeah 24V is their rated voltage for the application they're designed for (electric scooters) but they will handle less. Sam's runs on 22.2V and mine runs on 18.5V, and even at that it still has a good amount of power behind it and can self-right the robot without issue.

You can overvolt motors as well to get increased speed and power out of them, though this does shorten the lifespan of the motor. As a general rule, never go more than 50% over the rated voltage, so for example, a 12V drill motor can be run on 18V without it being too detrimental, but don't be surprised if it fails somepoint down the line.

Ok, good thing I didn't go with my dad's old drills, they might not even last 5 minutes.

so I take it both you and Sam use 12volt motors?
