Power your FTC robot with the SWYFT Spike Planetary Gearmotors, a robust solution combining a DC motor with a high-efficiency planetary gearbox for versatility and performance in FTC robotics. Engineered by SWYFT Robotics, these gearmotors offer various torque and speed options tailored to FTC challenges, ideal for driving elevators, arms, intakes and flywheels with seamless integration into the REV and goBILDA build systems.

Key Features

• Planetary Gearbox: Strong and extremely efficient steel gears with multiple ratio options to optimize speed and torque for your specific needs.
• Mounting Versatility: M4 and M3 mounting patterns for compatibility with REV and goBILDA components; additional M4 holes on the top and bottom for easy side-mounting on structures.
• Output Shaft Options:
  • 7mm socket: Accepts any length 7mm hex axle, retained with an internal M4 screw.
  • 5mm socket: Accepts any length 5mm hex axle, with a hub output that integrates seamlessly with REV motion components.
• 
• Easy Shaft Replacement: Replace the shaft by unscrewing just two screws on the front; all gears remain contained behind a secondary plate.
• Gear Ratio Options: Choose from 1:1, 3.7:1, 5.18:1, 13.7:1, 19.2:1, 27:1, 50:1, 71:1, 100:1, or 139:1 to match your application's requirements.
