    surely there is already such a discussion but did not find anything , an engine I wonder to fit what features should it have?
    maximum / nm laps ?

    I feel a sample rate tell me if I understand correctly .
    my engine is 60RPM and I have a 45mm lever and just the result of the photo ?

    That is a theoretic linear speed, not taking into account mechanical loss or Newtons.

    The linear speed does not mean much without knowing what power the motors can supply, what load it is to drive and with what leverage.

    Better to post a picture of your intended design and the full specs of the motors.

    @noorbeast my idea was to try to make a 6DOF , as you can view the picture with the measurements and the upper base , the other photo is the position of the motor with the measures of the lever and the arm and the angle of how I think the place the whole.

    I apologize for freehand drawing I hope you manage to figure it out

    for engines I was watching a 24v / 38rpm / 58NM
    What do you think about?
    Watching simulator @bruce stephen I also thought I used three pistons on the longer sides of the upper base for more support......

    I am attaching also the video of the miniature
    simulator

    Common knowledge that 38rpm would be too slow for anything other than flight sims.

    Also @kermitkong has made a rig with 24v motors maybe you should have a look through that build.
