    Coreless motors and high level gearboxes, sounds like a nice recipe

    1. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      Better with bevel-and-spur gearboxes.

    2. Michael Delamar

      Michael Delamar

      aye but high level have some good gearboxes for tight spaces

    3. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      Maybe you should ask him to design some new gearboxes with bevels in them. It would help all of us....

      CovDriver

      A bad photographer in my opinion always has an excuse like that it really bugs me your not there to photograph the clouds or the sun but the train !!

      Mmmm. It all

      comes down to whether your primary interest is railway photography or taking pics of railways as a matter of record. two VERY different things. Each to their own.
