This product is designed to be used with 500 series motors, like as: RS-540, RS-545, RS-550, RS-555 or similar. See above on "Related Products" section motors compatible with the gearbox we have in our store.
The new line of planetary gearboxes Orbit500-V2 came to add several improvements to the original project.
Like those:
- Double bearing on the output shaft, providing much more rigidity and load support.
- Shaft with keyway and central threaded hole, better fixation of components.
- Ventilation Channel in the Motor Block, longer life for your electric motor.
- Assembly with 4 Allen screws, making the set more solid.
- New Hardened gears, greater strength, and more durability.
Due to its small size, this set is perfect for creating compact prototypes.
Its use extends, but is not limited to: Robots for: Hockey, Sumo (RC and Auto), Trekking-Pro, Combat Robots and others... Just choose your reduction ratio (4X, 16X, 64X or 256X) and hands to work!
If you want to modify or customize your reduction, this is also very easy! Orbit500-V2 stages are interchangeable and "plug an play". Just remove or add a stage to change the ratio.

IMPORTANT:
*For the Pinion assembly on your electric motor, ensure that the shaft is supported and touching the base. Press the gear with the aid of a small manual press.
The distance from the gear to the face of the motor must be 9.5mm or less.
See the Technical Drawing of Components to understand this procedure.
Also, be careful to not mount the pinion out of place, use some base or guide to ensure parallelism
**After assembling the electric motor, it is recommended to smooth the gearbox.
Let the set run for a few minutes to the right and then to the left. This will improve performance.
