Yellow TT DC Gear Motor 6-12V for Robotics, DIY Cars & Smart Projects

Specifications: Model: TT DC Gear Motor (Yellow) Operating Voltage: 3V – 12V DC Rated Voltage: 6V DC No-Load Speed (6V): ~200 RPM Gear Ratio: 1:48 Stall Torque (6V): ≈ 0.8–1.0 kg·cm Current: 150mA (no-load), up to 700mA (stall) Shaft Type: Single D-shaft Material: Plastic gearbox Dimensions: 70mm × 22mm × 18mm (approx.) Key Features: Affordable and reliable DC gear motor for educational robotics Simple 2-wire connection for easy control Compatible with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and motor driver modules Plastic gearbox ensures lightweight construction Perfect for small robot cars, line followers, and automation models Applications: Line follower and obstacle-avoiding robots Mini robotic car chassis DIY educational projects Motorized mechanisms and prototypes FAQs:Q1: What voltage should I use for best performance?A: It runs best at 6V to 9V, balancing speed and torque. Q2: Is the gearbox plastic or metal?A: This standard yellow TT motor uses a plastic gearbox (light and inexpensive). Q3: Can I connect this directly to Arduino?A: Not directly — use a motor driver module (like L298N or L293D). Q4: Is this the same motor used in 2WD or 4WD robot kits?A: ✅ Yes, this is the most common motor used in those chassis kits. Categories: DC Motors, Gear Motors
