Well, I have decided that the L12R actuators are to slow for what I need. I was going to use one for steering on my RC tractor project, but the fact they only run on 6 volts means if I get any stronger actuators, they'll be very slow, handling the steering duties. The strongest 6 volt RC model is the 210:1 version, with ten pounds of force, at 2.5mm/second. I can buy a heavy duty servo with 400 ounces (25 pounds) of torque, that will move faster and be stronger. If that's not enough, I'll double up on them, if I have to.
