Solving Gearbox Ratio for 12" Wheel Travel @ 2mph
I need to figure out a gearbox ratio to get a 12 inch wheel to travel at 2mph. If I remember right the equation should be 1foot * 3.14*gearbox output rpm*60 then all divided by 5280 to get the final mph. Am I on the right path? Then I need a gearbox output around 58rpm.
