Re: ebay gear motors
Without actually trying one you can't be certain but they all seem fairly standard so they should be OK.
I would suggest the 6V 300 rpm ones would be the best for Antweights.

Re: ebay gear motors
I recently found these on ebay.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262622118958? ... EBIDX%3AIT
If you take the tube and switch off you and up with a 3 gm motor gear unit for £1.25.
.
Just had a quick test and I had difficulty in stopping the output gear with my fingers when running on 7.4 V.
I am hoping to squeeze a couple into a nano at some stage.

Re: ebay gear motors
Any chance you know the MOD of that gear on the end?

Re: ebay gear motors
I am afraid not it is coarser than the standard white gears I use which I think are mod 0.5.

Re: ebay gear motors
The Ebay listing says the output gear is 4.5mm dia, 6 teeth, 0.6 mould [sic]

Re: ebay gear motors
Oops my wife is always telling me to read the instructions I have just been designing a wheel that fits onto the gear as the speed seems about right.
Re: ebay gear motors
I used motors similar to these on one of my Nanos (Nudge) and they're nice but I found them painfully slow. According to the specs though these may actually be geared faster, in which case they could be quite useable.

Re: ebay gear motors
Not quite as fast as the add I just measured one at 220 rpm on 7.4v but motor wheel and tyre have come out at 4.2 gms.
