Re: Banebots Motor Question

The case short problem is easy to get around, just mount the motor in an isolated environment. The plastic housing of a drill transmission or plastic somewhere else between the motor and the chassis works great for this. I would use the 775 motor before anything for any high-power scoring need (I'm assuming all 4 CIMs would be used up in the drive-train) as it is the third most powerful motor in the KOP (following the CIM and only 18W less than the -0673 FP) and its size allows it to handle high load and stall conditions much better and longer than a 550 or smaller motor.
