The FingerTech Gold Spark 16mm Gearmotor 250:1 is an ideal choice for hobbyists and competitive robotics applications, including mini-sumo and line-following robots. This gearmotor features an all-metal spur gear reduction gearhead coupled with a Mabuchi FK-050 motor, ensuring durability and performance. The gearmotor is lightweight, weighing only 28 grams, yet it delivers substantial power, making it suitable for various robotic movements.
The design includes an extra-long 3mm shaft that is triple-supported internally, allowing for direct wheel mounting. This feature simplifies the process of getting a robot operational. The gearmotor is compatible with a range of accessories, such as Foam Wheels and Twist Hubs, which can be used to enhance its functionality. Additionally, it can be easily integrated with radio control systems by soldering on tinyESCs.
For secure installation, the gearmotor can be mounted using 2-56 screws and custom motor mounts. It also supports the use of 3mm bearing blocks for added stability in heavier robots or weapon systems. Flat Motor Mounts are available for face-mounting in panels, providing versatility in mounting options.
Note: Exceeding a torque of 6.84kg-cm (95oz-in) may damage the output gear stage.
