Re: 1:1 gearbox for CIM motors?

The motors are indeed the CIMs. However, I REALLY question why you want a 1:1 gearbox. I don't know of a single gearbox like that (unless you count the keyed output shaft), but unless you're running them under no load, they might have a heck of a time accelerating to top speed.
