How many CIM motors can we use?
 

The manual states that we can only use the models of motors that we received in our Kit, can we use more motors than what the kit provides?

In general, no. I heard something about an exception that you can use 4 small CIMs, but you might want to check on that.

please check the rules before you post...you can use up to 4 of the smaller cims and 2 big cims


<R43> Specific items allowed include:
• Additional HITEC HS-322S servos.
• Additional Victor 884 Speed Controllers and Spike Relays, as needed.
• Additional solenoid valves, air cylinders, and connecting fittings.
• Teams may purchase either one additional 4-slot Maxi-block circuit breaker panel and/or one 2005 FRC
circuit breaker panel, and utilize it on their 2006 robot in addition to, or in replacement of, the circuit
breaker panels provided in the kit of parts.

• Teams may utilize one or two additional small CIM motors (part #FR801-001) in addition to those
provided in the kit of parts. This means that you may use up to four, and no more, small CIM motors on
the robot.
