A rotation measurement system is shown and described herein. In some embodiments, the rotation measurement system comprises a pinion gear comprising an elastic material allowing the pinion gear to deform. The elastic deformation of the pinion gear provides a complete mesh such that there is no backlash between the pinion gear and a main gear when the pinion gear is pressed into the main gear. The pinion gear may be held in place with at least one spring pressing the pinion gear into the main gear. A sensor for measuring the rotation of the pinion gear may be decoupled from the pinion gear assembly by utilizing a Hall effect sensor to detect a magnetic field of a magnet disposed on a shaft coupled to the pinion gear.
