Hey there. Any good resources out there for Technic gear configuration. I did a google search and got some basics...and some stuff I couldn't comprehend. I check the Index for this forum but the technipedia seems to be forbidden to me for some reason. Are there any good gear setup tutorials on our very own Eurobricks? :blush: Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Hello Hinckley, you could try Sariel's gear calculator.

That will give you a final ratio to work with as well as telling you the torque,you can also add a motor to work out motorized outputs (they are different to non-motorized setups because there is gearing in most of the Lego motors).

You could also try Sariel's gear tutorial as well.

That will give you a basic guide and some basic information on gearing,backlash,torque etc...

Maybe you could tell us what you plan to use gears for?

Yeah, I can't use technicopedia either. I emailed blakbird, and he said

"I ran out of bandwidth for the month. Someone on a car blog used one of my animations in their blog and it used up 10 Gb of bandwidth in 1 hour before I could stop them, so now my site is down until next month." Go to Sariel's site www.sariel.pl, and look at his gear tutorial.
