Hey,

Sorry about the seemingly simplistic question, but would having 4 CIMs on the drivetrain (two per side) impact speed in any way over having 2? We're using the KOP belt drive system on a custom chassis. Our robot is primarily offensive, so we want it to be at maximum speed to be able to get to the feeder station and back to the scoring area as fast as possible, would putting 4 CIMs on the chassis speed it up significantly?

Also, would 5 CIMs total on the robot (4 on chassis, 1 on shooter) bring up any battery issues? I remember someone on our team a couple years ago saying something about how running 4 CIMs at once draws too much power from the battery, so it couldn't be done, but the rule this year seems to be 6, so I'm a bit confused about that.

Thanks,
