Have we all had our fill of Maple syrup and/or fireworks? With Canada Day and Independence Day behind us, we can get on with our regularly scheduled "look at all the new stuff we've brought in" programming.

New Sanyo Gear motors
Dave Hrynkiw
March 15, 2004
Wow! They're finally here! These are the original gear motors we used sooo many years ago to convert and power the Miniball kits (yes, they're under review for bringing back - don't rush us!).
We're the only place to find the whole assortment of four gear ratios - 75.7, 134.5, 196.6, and 297.1:1 reduction, and in all-metal gear-trains. These are truly beautiful little units, and being such quality, they're a bit more expensive than our regular gear motors. BUT, if you have a small-space, high-power requirement, nothing else will fulfill the job.
Ideal for applications needing light-weight actuators, like with antweight combat robots, or small (or quick!) walking robots!
