## Description

A mini, metal geared, 6V 30RPM motor for small robotics projects! Draws round 17mA free running, and around 50mA under load.

This version comes as the motor on its own. It is also available [soldered with wires](https://core-electronics.com.au/modmypi-6v-30-rpm-mini-metal-gear-motor-with-soldered-wires.html). (Soldered version comes with approximately 5.5" of 22 AWG solid core wire soldered on to the terminals.)

The shaft is approximately 9mm in length and is 3mm in diameter, so works well with ModMyPi's [3mm hub/coupler](https://core-electronics.com.au/modmypi-brass-motor-shaft-hub-3mm.html).
