Mini CIM---6200--------1.40Nm-------86.0A-----1.50A-----227.24W

We will be testing the Mini CIM in our shooter soon.
You have the Mini-CIM and the BAG motor confused. The BAG motor is last on the motor chart. The Mini-CIM is next to last. (The BAG Motor is the bigger of the two.) Don't fret, I mixed up the 2 at first as well.

That said, I like the BAG motor for shooting as well. You're allowed 4, so ganging 2 together comes close or even exceeds the specs of a CIM. Keep CIM's for driving and climbing.


Nevermind
