Re: Cim-u-lator Gearbox

We received a 500-type CIM-U-LATOR today in the mail, and I took a few pictures.

So far I really like it, according to my calculations based on the RS550 spec sheet, it should have an rpm of 7100 and a stall torque of 370 oz-in.
Compare to the CIM motor's 5310 rpm and 340 oz-in of torque.

Only downfall I see is that it requires two motor controllers.

Anyway, my two cents.
