Drive Motors
 

What motors did your team integrate into the drive system? I think the Martians had the Small Cim, a window and a fischer price. What did you do?

Re: Drive Motors
 

We used 4 small CIMs.

2 big CIMs and a custom gearbox

Re: Drive Motors
 

1251 used the big cim and small cim in a combiner 2 speed gearbox. The design was a bit over thought but pretty good for a first time custom two speed it pushed almost everything. I have some pics if you would like to see just pm me. Currently, working on the same motors in the KOP as last year we are designing a three motor 2 speed ball drive. This would use two small cims and one big cim per side. :rolleyes: Were working on improvements for next year so all kinds of ideas are being thrown around.

in 2005 we had 4 small CIMs, two 6 volt fisher prices running at a full 12v and two speed shift on the fly transmissions. In 2006, we used 4 small CIMs and very small two speed shift on the fly transmissions.

4 small CIM's two per KOP gearbox.

Re: Drive Motors
 

Four small CIMs, divvied between two KOP gearboxes. Never a misstep from 'em the whole time.

Re: Drive Motors
 

Same here.

Re: Drive Motors
 

We used 4 small CIMs on the KOP Gearbox last year and 2 small CIMs on the KOP Gearbox this year.

Re: Drive Motors
 

We also used 4 small CIMs on the KOP Gearbox this year

We also used four small CIMs on the KOP Gearboxs

Re: Drive Motors
 

We used 4 small cims in the KOP gearboxes, like the last five people or so. Next year, I hope we can get a couple cool multi-speed transmissions put together... *eyes 716*...

Re: Drive Motors
 

We used 2 small + 2 big cim motors in the AM 2 speed. Worked beautifully, and we're hoping to make a 2 speed we designed.

4 small cims in dewalt trannys

Re: Drive Motors
 

2 small cims in 2 KOP trannies <- bad idea, too slow, too weak, saved weight though!

For next year, 4 small cims between 2 custom made 2 speed transmissions that we're currently designing.
