Several years ago I bought a dented 120 Fibo with a Big motor , that H2H motor was missing the gearbox and the electric motor .
Tried to use it with the motor of a actuator but on that way it was running three times too fast .
Left it in peace for years but since I have to motorise a 1.5m Gibertini I decided to give it a new try .
Searched and found a small 3:1 gearbox and made some flanges to connect the parts together .
Now its running fine with a regular actuator motor , no trubble to move the dish with lnb revolver from 80º E to 70º W
(repaired the dented Fibo and sold it long ago together with a original Fibo motor)
