If the miniz is an inline 4... this would be a V12.

Ok. Well. I took apart this BB gun I had... it's an electric one. And took out this motor. Then it hit me. This motor uses 4 AAA's... so does the miniz!

Voila! I present to you the start of project überZ.

Yeah. You're right about the tourque part. It's all tourque since it was used to wind a HUGE spring. The gun, by the way, is dead. It's in like 55 pieces and I think I've broken a few.

But hey, I'll still do this project though.

Hope youve lotsa FET on yer board, cos that's gonna draw a lot more juice than the 130 motors, I would suggest researching the current draws etc. before you start running it.

you might want to runs a tall pinion (~14T) gear to compensate for the torque/speed tradeoff..

you could pare down the stock mount, then use styrene/Putty/thick elastic to hold the motor in place.
