Be careful about doing this, because I believe the encoders on FIRST choice are a little different than the ones that we used here. While the pins here are parallel to the face that you are mounting to the CIM, the FIRST Choice ones are Perpendicular. So it wouldn't work for this application. However the CUI Encoders on FC are still very useful for the end of a shaft, like an idler, so we'll still be getting some.
The only testing we have done with these have been on a simple flywheel. We attached it to our Frisbee flywheel from 2013 with great results.
