CIMulator is a gearbox that will mount 1 or 2 BB 775s and give you an output shaft and output mounting holes of a CIM motor (Basically it allows you to fit BB775s where you'd use a CIM motor). Specs can be found here.
I just looked at that link and I think you are slightly mistaken. It appears that there are 2 different cimulators from BB, one for RS-775s and one for RS-550s. Only the one for the 550 says it can accomodate 2 motors, the RS-775 cimulator can only accomdate 1 motor. Is this correct?

Also, when people talk of using the 775s for shooting, should I assume you mean the RS-775-18v?

Pardon my ignorance, but I was wondering what is meant by the numbers before the motors. I know it has something to do with size or power, but I don't know much more than that. Could someone give me a brief explanation?

Thank you.
