This is really cool by the way
Thanks!

As previously stated only one of those is a full sized CIM so our drive is fine (unless we have power draw problems, but I don't think we will be driving and shooting at the same time)
(the Mini CIM is my favorite thing about VEX Pro)
We did get a CIMulator and 2 550s with our BaneBot voucher, should come in handy even if not this year.

We are somewhat happy that we can get away with not using gearboxes and just go with something like this http://www.andymark.com/product-p/am-0588.htm
