If you fly rubber and find that your motor is either too strong (and you want a slightly weaker motor) or too weak (and you want a slightly stronger motor, maybe you don’t know intuitively what is the next increment.\u00a0 I encountered this and decided to develop a chart or table to help me.<\/p>\n

This assumes two things:\u00a0 1) you won’t be using a rubber stripper and 2) you have the 5 sizes of rubber available (1\/16″, 3\/32″, 1\/8″, 3\/16″. & 1\/4″).\u00a0 With these sizes of rubber, you will be able to combine them into nearly every 1\/32″ increment.<\/p>\n

The information is arranged in vertical columns.\u00a0 Find the desired motor in the left-most column.\u00a0 Then move across that row and each cell in that row offers a combination that creates that total.\u00a0 Each column has a certain dimension of rubber as the Primary and then what secondary dimensions will need to be added.<\/p>\n

The example that started me down this path was a motor that was 2 loops of 3\/16″.\u00a0 I thought it was maybe too strong, but what would be the next smaller size?\u00a0 With this chart, I can see that 2 loops of 1\/8″ plus 1 loop of 3\/32″ is the next smaller increment – of one more step would be 1 loop of 3\/16″ plus 1 loop of 1\/8″.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
