Key Features
- TT Motor with plastic gearbox
- Gear ratio of 1:48
- Comes with 2 x 200mm wires with breadboard-friendly 0.1" male connectors
- A high-current motor driver is required (not included)
Perhaps you've been assembling a new robot friend, adding a computer for a brain and other fun personality touches. Now the time has come to let it leave the nest and fly on its own wings– err, wheels!
These durable (but affordable!) plastic gearbox motors (also known as 'TT' motors) are an easy, low-cost way to get your projects moving. This is a TT DC Gearbox Motor with a gear ratio of 1:48, and it comes with 2 x 200mm wires with breadboard-friendly 0.1" male connectors. Perfect for plugging into a breadboard or terminal blocks.
You cannot drive these directly from a microcontroller, a high-current motor driver is required! We recommend a DRV8833 motor driver for these motors, as it works well down to 3V and can be set up with current limiting since the stall current on these can get high. The TB6612 can also be used, it's on Adafruit shields and wings, but you'll need to supply at least 4.5V - which is what you'll likely want to run these motors at anyhow!
