Yes, the relay stops the motor quickly so the timing switch doesn't have to activate early. The relay type and wiring diagram are on my website under the instax conversion.
@@hackaninstant Thank you for sharing all of this! Is there a typical product for the relay? Googling "6V K-1 relay" yields a pretty broad range of options (and prices) and it's not a component I'm very familiar with. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
The slot needed to be lengthened by around 3-4mm. This method does work, but I'm looking into another method which uses a relay to short out the motor when powered off to reduce run-on.
Tank you for this tutorial, very helpful ! Have you found a solution with a relay so we don't have to drill the gear ?

So how long did the slot need to be on the final gear in the end?
