Re: CIM motor legality

I can identify that Globe motor by sight. NOT legal. Sadly.

For anybody wondering, that's a Globe motor/gearbox combo. They used to come in the KOP, but were discontinued some years back (supplier stopped donating). They've been illegal ever since. They were great for light duty arms.

And it's definitely not a CIM. It's closer to an RS550, as I recall.
