How many inch/pounds of torque would I need for a Hetzer sized tank?
I have 2 options for the gearbox. a 6/1 or an 8/1 reduction. the 6/1 would
go about 680 rpm with 450 inch/pounds of torque. at 8/1 it would go 550
rpm at 600 inch/pounds of torque. the design would be around 75 lbs thanks
to these Ni-mh batteries we found.

They can handle 40-60 amp discharges. |
