Product Description:
The 5203 Series Yellow Jacket Planetary Gear Motor (26.9:1, 223 RPM, 3.3-5V Encoder) is a high-performance brushed DC motor designed for precision robotics, automation, and goBILDA build systems.
It features a robust 8mm REX output shaft compatible with goBILDA components, supported by four M4 threaded mounting holes (16mm square pattern, 10mm deep blind holes) for secure and easy installation.
The planetary gearbox with steel gears delivers high torque and reliability for demanding applications.
The integrated 3.3-5V relative quadrature encoder uses magnetic Hall Effect sensors, providing 753.2 PPR at the output shaft for precise position feedback.
Ideal for robotics, automation projects, and DIY builds requiring a compact, durable, and precise motor solution.
