But in the vehicle you don't have a variable speed belt paired with the transmission.
The only reason for the rotor gearbox is to be able to operate within the operating range of the variable speed belt. If the belt can get the rotor speed you want there really isn't any power difference between operating the rotor in 1st gear or 2nd. The only difference is in belt slippage and life, that's why its recommended to run in low for corn.
