And that is only if you can find one.  I was never able to, and will be ground testing with a three pinion planet.





Tracy, etal.,
   I realize your RWS drives are the shinizal ....
   I'm looking at a Ross Areo 3.17:1 reduction drive with a bell
housing that is currently mounted on a single rotor 12a. I would like
