This is ONLY the motor that is featured in the NeveRest Series gearmotors. This motor has a pinion gear pre-installed that interfaces with either our NeveRest Classic gearboxes (12T) or our NeveRest Orbital gearboxes (17T). To produce a reasonable amount of torque for either driving your robot or moving a mechanism you will need one of these gearboxes or a different reduction method such as the NeveRest Sport series gearboxes. Watch this video for step by step instruction on a similar gearbox, and reference this document for steps on using it with the NeveRest Sport. We recommend choosing the 12T option for these as that gear is easier to remove.

The power cable which feeds into the black encoder housing has two different options that are already crimped to the end of the cable. (select your needs above):

JST VH 2-pin connectors - Classic Motor Option or Orbital Motor Option: This option plug directly into the FIRST Tech Challenge REV Controller
Anderson Powerpole 15A connectors - Classic Motor Option or Orbital Motor Option

12 tooth pinion gear options: am-3104 & am-3104b are compatible with CLASSIC Gearboxes and replacements on CLASSIC Gearmotors:

17 tooth pinion gear options: am-3104_17t & am-3104b_17t Compatible With ORBITAL Gearboxes:

Encoder Cable options:
Encoder cables are not included with this motor, and are sold separately. We have three options:

am-3926a is a cable for connecting the encoder to the REV expansion hub used in FTC.
am-2992 is a cable which has the white 4-pin connector for the encoder and also the black 4-pin connector for the HiTechnic motor controller.
am-2993 is a cable which has the white 4-pin connector for the encoder on one end and 4 separate black connectors.

Note: The included screws may be either socket head or Philips.
