Re: Buggy BAG Motors

Greetings,
Our team decided to use a bag motor for our shooter connected through a versa gear box modified to a 1:1 ratio. It experienced the same issues mentioned previously in the thread: one would not start up when required and another would run a varied RPM's. It is rather frustrating, honestly. We will be removing all bag motors from our robot until the reliability improves. I now think that all vex motors are suspect. Has anyone experiences these issues with the "mini cims?"

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
