    thanks, great feedback!

    lastly, would it be workable to run the 24 V IG42 motors from 12 V? I believe somewhere on your site I read that they’ll barely turn or something, not sure how bad it really is. Thinking about 78 RPM, maybe 122 tops, 2WD, etc.

    in the end I’ll just buy & test something, hoping to narrow it down so I don’t buy too many motors I can’t use. =)

    I should add, this will be a 2WD bot, with a tail caster, so no need for skid steering.

    I have the same 10 inch tires:
    https://www.superdroidrobots.com/shop/item.aspx/atr-wheel-and-shaft-set-pair-8mm-bore-10-inch-traction-lug/1995/

    from what I can tell even though my bot will be light (10 lbs or so) the IG32 or IG32P motors are not going to cut it, but can you provide any guidance on that or results from past experience?

    IG42 is the next step up, but I don’t see any 12 V motors there, only 24 V. Is it possible to get 12 V IG42 motors? In particular I’d prefer right angle with encoder, if possible.
