Bedrock drill don't use RU-power from custom gearbox

Hi all. I met a problem and i can’t understand what i do wrong. I’m using four iridium-engines (512 RU-power for one) and three custom gearboxs. On output i have 2048 RU-power in total and my Tachometr sensor prove it but my bedrock drill don’t work.
What i did:
–i used electric motor EV instead RU-power from custom gearboxes and the bedrock drill was worked

  • connected middle custom gearbox to RU-outlet of my drill directly


Example that with electric engine is working

If i connected to the axle Electric Dynamo EV (input 2048 RU) the dynamo doesn’t work too

Did you try stepping up the “Torque” using an additional Planetary Gearbox, so that the Minimum Input is reached? Everything else seems fine on your Setup.

Thanks for your answer.For me it is honor =). Can you explain what is “planetary gearbox”? I have only two type in my NEI - “custom gearbox” and “transformer gearbox”. In my scheme i use three custom gearboxes one upon another and i thought that gearbox in middle took RU-power from two another and on tachometer i see that it is work (512x4=2048). Maybe is it bug?

Or wrong spin on axle?

No. I checked it with electric engine. Drill works in any spin

Oops I meant to say Transformer Gearbox, i just said Planetary Gearbox because that is the real life term for it. XD

Hmmm. Maybe i don’t understand how it works but in describe i see “Energy IN 2048 RU” and “Energy OUT 512”. I can only decrease RU-power with it
