hello,

i have been using 12v drills at 24v on 95mm wheels in my current thwackbot featherweight and am really not pleased with the performance (and the reliabilty of drills in general).

so im looking at stepping up to gold motors and was wondering what advice people could offer in regards to their use? (what is the best way to attach pulleys to them etc).

could anyone also comment on their performance in comparison to say drill motors? and would would it be possible to gear them to about 20mph top speed?

btw - im looking at using the 12v version at 24v with approximately 95mm wheels.

any help appreciated,
Regards Glen
