Re: *gear reduction unit
Rick...
 So Rick, how much power do those little 385 motors have? I'm really curious if they struggle at all with a heavy load? Do they notice the load much, with the reduction? I'd be curious to see a video....

Re: *gear reduction unit
I don't have any visual proof of it, but I have run my single axle and flatbed doubles around with a 12 pack on each trailer. At the time tho, the thought never crossed my mind to get a GVW on it.
Did it pull it? Yes...... Did it struggle doing it? It did, but not to anywhere near the degree that i was expecting. I was actually impressed with the capability of the 385 canned motor. The biggest selling point for me on these gearmotors is the fact that there is ZERO backlash in them. Unlike a Tamiya 3 speed which has a ridiculous amount of slop in it.
