[geraldprien]

[zylascope]

[tootoosick]

How many jump packs do you carry?
And which ones?

[matthewblystra]

Is there any videos on hydraulic pressures?

[Jane-esez]

why dont you put teeth on the outer diameter of the ring and add another planetary to move the same speed so the outer planetary is bigger and it makes a 1 to 1 ratio increase torque
why didnt anyone put teeth on the outer diameter of the ring

[fenderplayer]

And you can get 6 different speeds from one planetary gear set depending what gears are driving, driven, and locked
