I think videos like this are awesome. Not just for the BB-8 Builder community but just to fill a huge gap in youtube's "maker" video resources. Keep them coming!
Gear reduction does affect power, as torque and velocity of moving components , inform the power of the overall system design. Energy is required. Please acknowledge an informative and well constructed video. And if you feel you can do better, by all means do so.
Don't take this wrong, it's only constructive criticism. I loved the video and please make more. You started off really good, moving along at a good clip, but then you slowed down. (about the time with all the handwaving) I loved the style and fast pace of the beginning. Loose any part of the video where you talk with your hands. I've thought about making a youtube learning channel myself so I've done some reading about it. After watching a ton of videos and doing some studying, I think it is best to keep your videos to between 10-15 minutes. Try to stick with real meaty substance. (think short attention span) As a side note, put links to where you got info and parts in the video description. You could probably loose the wikipedia link and add servocity and others. Great overview. I'd like to see some how-to for hooking up drivers and controllers. I'd go with a more generic name than something related to BB-8.
Have been thinking a lot about those very same issues. I'm always unscripted, which tends to cause my meandering and hand waving. I acutlaly have a really short attention span myself, whcih is why I go to too many subjects and circle around a bit too much, but I'm acknowledging and working on it! goal is that all videos would be under 15 minutes. This one did wind up way too long. Editing is really a trick and I tend to lose steam too quickly (during editing, not on camera) Anyway, thanks for the good advice and expect to see me incorporating it !!
Thank you. I actually have a much better understanding of Spur vs Planetary now. I always thought of them as "Spur Motors vs Motor + Planetary Gearbox" not "Motor + Spur Gearbox vs Motor + Planetary Gearbox". It seems so silly now and I have no idea why I got caught up on that way of thinking.. Thank you very much.
Good Info. Always learn something new to go along with my burgeoning electronics learning. Can you incorporate PWM into your upcoming videos. I have the basics of it but it still trips me up. Thanks!! Keep up the good work!!
thanks, that di+should gave any beginners some idea on the type of motor, now the extra i would like have seen, is info on torque(rated, stall) in these motors btw you did mention at the end some... again thanks and a very well prepared presentation !!!
Hello there, I just found your channel. The IBT-2, eh? I just go with the IBT-4's instead. The IBT-2's you have to modify to get them to not overheat; flawed design, but if you take that giant heat sink off the back, and put heat sinks on the actual transistors, then they work better.
Thank you for posting this. I've been reading the forum looking for more detailed information on these products. Would love to collaborate with you on what parts I will need for my build.
I am controlling a small DC motor for a Power Wheel of my son that Motors actually in the steering wheel it controlled the rotation of steering left and right I was wondering what board should I use to connect to RC receiver ESC transmitter thank you
Please, if you may help, the 56RPM you recommended, could be a 6v? I saw ones 6v~12v, that may work 20RPM to 56. My BB8 speed is slow, I guess I’ll have to change. Thanks in advance.
help your right on what all you do But I need to know where you got the one on this post at the Time of 16;55 Please let me know thanks nightdustrataoldotcom
Since the video have you found a motor you like more than the Actobotics/ServoCity HD premium motors? I'm needing some more heavy duty motors and have bought a few of theActobotics and like them, I'm just looking for other input on something comparable/better. Thanks!
For that kind of weight you'd need to use a heavy duty planetary gearbox or a belt drive of some kind. A lot of e-bike and e-board builders are using high power brushless motors and ESCs too. I'd look at those options, but its hard to say specifically what motors to use without knowing more about the rest of the design and control methods.
I'm afraid that's really difficult to say without knowing all the specifications on the wheelchair, the weight it would have to carry, the speed desired, the torque desired, etc.
depends what you have in mind. If you want to move a decent amount of weight reliably, you have to get a decent motor. You can get things on sale, or start with cheaper ones, the concepts are all the same. The motor drivers I use (the BTS-7960) are actually very inexpensive compared to things like the roboclaw for example.
8:54 meh those motor suck (Edit1: dont get fool mine suck) i got 2 tried to use it with a V belt pulley and the friction is stronger than the motor at 24V

Thanks! I'll see what I can do!
I am a beginner. I have learned a lot by watching this video. nice work. thanks
Very useful explanation of the various gear/drive mechanisms; thanks much for sharing! Looking forward to more.
The gear reduction does not affect power. It affects torque and angular velocity.
Very good point! Sorry for my slip!

Also, I do have some new channel name ideas that aren't BB8 related, we shall see...

I don't usually comment but this was a very informative video!! Thank you very much!
With that 43amp controller I like to run 2-3 motors at once, saves money and greatly simplifies steering lol

oh wow! A synth with actual patch cables (from which we got the term "patch" for programming sounds)
Do I need a gearbox with this if I'm gonna use it on a rc 110scale crawler chassis
thanks, that di+should gave any beginners some idea on the type of motor,
now the extra i would like have seen, is info on torque(rated, stall) in these motors
btw you did mention at the end some... again thanks and a very well prepared presentation !!!
thanks for the video it's discussed also about spur gear applications. hope you can make separate video for gear and applications for arduino
Hi, what motor driver do you use for jgy370 worm motor? The one on 15:10.. Is the l298n can drive it even on its full load? Thank you
Looking at the smallest Actobotics planetary gear motor...how low can you get the rpms to go using a speed (voltage) controller?
Thank you! Worm Gear looks like what I need so off to servo city. you should gotten an endorsement deal with them.

Hello sir
Can you help me where can i find gearbox for 755 motor with 1500 rpm or more?
Thanks, helpful video
Which motor is suitable for the 18v
4ah power supply???
Genial amigo, excelente explicación...
I want to make a rc robotic arm which motors should I use please help me sir
does the motor controller act like a resistor?
help your right on what all you do But I need to know where you got the one on this post at the Time of 16;55 Please let me know thanks nightdustrataoldotcom
The linear actuator was bought on ebay.

For the price they're hard to beat. The banebot motors and gearboxes look really good, but they are rather expensive.
can you help me out in making a space rover
need to choose motors to move and steer the rover
Weight max 5 to 7kg
size about a suitcase
what dc motor, when the power off is locked ?
To hold position when turned off I would recommend something with a worm drive gearbox or a brake.
I need a list of all motors u have in the video. If I satisfy with specification. Of motor I will definitely buy it
I just learnt many things
where can I shop for all those motors?
Some are from amazon, amazon and scrapping, but the econ gearmotors and planetary motors are purchased from servocity.com and robotshop.com
Thanks..
Here is Expansion Shield for Robot www.ebay.com/itm/222514834499?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
Sir how it cost
OK thanks..
What kind of power supply/battery pack is that? Where can I get one ?
I've bought a bunch of different LiPo batteries from hobbyking. They're good quality and relatively inexpensive for what they are.
which motor should i use for making segway....that can sustain upto 80-90 kg weight
For that kind of weight you'd need to use a heavy duty planetary gearbox or a belt drive of some kind. A lot of e-bike and e-board builders are using high power brushless motors and ESCs too. I'd look at those options, but its hard to say specifically what motors to use without knowing more about the rest of the design and control methods.
what kind of motor that compatible for gyroscope? for balancing
Any motor would be "compatible" it really is how you design and what the goal is.
Good!
Pls tell me a exact dc gear motor for a wheelchair project rpm, volts, power
I'm afraid that's really difficult to say without knowing all the specifications on the wheelchair, the weight it would have to carry, the speed desired, the torque desired, etc.
Brushless Gearmotors: www.micro-intecno.com/en/ with planetary and worm gearboxes. And motor controls, If needed.
Those look like excellent motors! I'd love to get a hold of some to test and work with!
I want to see the candy!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hanzhen harmonic drive gear , robot arm gear , over 30 years experience
seriously I expected a better start dialogue but anyways video is good
Good thing you can get some motors easy but me lol i just hope
+nerdsplaining - Expensive stuff, a beginner need things in low -costs, not to be making it too expensive and hard

I'm surprised. I've ridden the scooter this one came out of and I'm not a lightweight!
@@EraserMiceLabs or atleast mine suck :P
@@EraserMiceLabs i got real question what is the amp draw when its stalled? i wonder if it not because my power supply is 5 amp
@@buder5116 I couldn't say, I've never measured it
To make a 10 kg object spinning at 10 rpm what kind of gear box should I use? Thanks in advance
That depends on the motor you are using, it will have certain capacities and characteristics, the right motor might not even need a gearbox.
