Hi,
I am currently a student and seeking for some help from this forum. My club is asking me to build a heavy cargo lift airplane. For the competition, i only allow to use one kind of dc motor. We got alot of sucess trials last year by using a two stage gear box 4.43:1 ratio. But I want to be able to carry more weight, which we got 320 g last year (the plane has to fit a 24 in circle aka diagonal, length and width has to be 24, not the smartest rule). I want to use the planetary gear box because i found that it has the most torque among most gearbox. Should I use the planetary gear box and will it help me achieve my goal? If any have any other ideas please share. Plssss forgive me if I make any mistake or bad assumption...thank you.
