| How do I calculate this? I need to know how much torque is produced for a 45.6 in/oz servo using a 20:1 gear reduction.

| Simple answer is it's 45.6 x 20. More force over a shorter distance is the same as less force over a longer distance. A more accurate answer is that the gearbox has losses so the calculation is 45.6x20x(efficiency of the gearbox) where Efficiency is, say 50% use 0.5. |

| Paul, The output of the gear reduction should be: 45.6 * 20 = 912 In oz or 912 / 12 = 72 ft oz or 72 / 16 = 4.75 ft lb Hope this helps PS: I think your original units should be in oz of torque NOT in/oz???
