Re: turret rotational speed [TANKS]

Some things to keep in mind:

* its 35rpm at 24v (presumably thats what you'll be running at)
* a chain drive usually has a little slack in it when stopping, starting, or 
reversing.  I haven't tried it, but I think that would be annoying if you're trying 
to fine tune your aim

I'd use at least a 30t sprocket on the turret, giving you ~11rpm
