The CIMs plug in to the gearbox directly. The FPs are passing through AM Planetary gearboxes first.

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

we are useiong 10 I think

2 fp w/AM planetaries for drive
4 cims for something I'm not telling:cool:
and four other small motors for something I'm not telling:cool:
(I'm not sure on these I've been sick and haven't been to the past few meetings)

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

6 exactly

4 cims and two denso's

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

4 CIM via 4 Toughboxs
2 Window (tentative, may or may not occur.

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

It would seem that way, if one didn't know about all the fancy things our drive base will do. Trust me, it needs that much headroom in drive power.

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

At this point, 15 motors. What are they capable of? Adding a LOT of weight:)

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

You've made it abundantly clear what your drive could do elsewhere, I still stand by my statement that your drive is "overpowered", as in, using far more power (regardless of how it's used) than required to be competitive. I also still think the conveyors are underpowered (they may move, but slow I imagine).

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

i would expect nothing less from BBS

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

6:
2 CIMs on drive
2 CIMs on the shooter
1 Globe on the turret
1 Globe on the shooter feeder

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

We are not sure, maybe 6 -7. But i have a question. How many window motors can we use?

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

You can use up to the number of window motors that came in the 2009 kit and no more. Specifically that would be 2 Nippon-Denso motors (1 Right-hand and 1 left-hand) and 1 Keyang motor.

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

We are using 5
4 Cim Motors: for each Wheel with Toughboxes
1 Window Motor: For Steering

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

4cims, 2 fish, 2 window

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

i wnt to see how this will work

Re: How many motors are you using on this years robot?
 

Wow, I'm getting the impression that my team's robot is overly simple:

2 CIMs for drive
1 CIM for conveyor belt
1 globe for the dumper.

Well, I guess its just fewer things that can go wrong...
