Post Body

Hello,

I am working on an electric spinning fish reel for my disability.

I originally made a prototype with a yellow gear motor as if was cheap, light, and could be powered on USB. Didn't have enough power.

I'm trying to find a new motor but im an indecisive type and I need advice on how to choose a motor where to look.

Specifications:

~ able to pull at least 100g without slowing, ideally more

- as light as possible (will be on a rod that weighs only 500g)

- bonus points for being able to pull much more (up to 6 lb) as the line is rated for 8 lb

- doesn't resist rotation or lock when not powered

- rpm around 120 (variable speeds is bonus)

I'm looking at one called zytd520 but it's quite heavy and there might be a better option
