N20 DC Motor with Magnetic Encoder - 6V with 1:50 Gear Ratio

The first step in a robotics project is to get a motor spinning. Once you've done that you quickly learn that not all motors go the same speed, even if they are the same part number! There are always variations that relate to voltage, environment, and manufacturing changes.
