sup guys, i need some help. Im on the verge of getting a Banebot geared motor for a two wheel project that im working on. robotshop.ca/rbban31-banebots-spur-gearmotor.html
My question is : is anyone familiar with this geared motor? can it spin freely by hand if theres no voltage applied to it?
I know with the gearbox/motor arrangements that i work with its almost impossible to turn a gearbox by hand.
Any good sources out there for small (12vdc) electromechanical clutches?
What i want to be able to do is mobilize this bot with two dc motors at the wheel with the option to override the motor and push it by hand w/o damaging parts.
worse case id have to design a way to engage and disengage the motor with some mechanical arrangement
feedback greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance
