Hello everyone!

With Portsmouth Extreme Robots only about a month away, I need to get my robot together! Well it is already together I just need drive an......anyway! lol

I an looking for a more robust drive system. I currently use 18v 550s drill motors with a one speed gearbox that comes with it (36:1 ratio running on 22.2v lipo). I have been looking at the P60 gearboxes as an alternative so i can just replace bits if they break. But this got me thinking, why not use the beefier 775 range motors as the P60 has a model for this.

So I dont really know which way to jump being as i need a new gearbox regardless as the one I had blew up in spectacular fashion lol. So I though I would throw it out to you guys!

What motor/gearbox combo do you guys use and what ratios etc?

Any replies are much appreciated because I would really like to get something that works well in this robot before I move on to sticking a dirty great axe on it lol

Thanks a lot in advance!

All the best

Will
