Re: Best way to cool CIM motors?
Two CIMs should not be heating up during a match unless they are being very over-worked. Gear your mechanism more effectively to solve your real problem, don't address the symptom of over-heating motors.
Our 'totem' can support between 2 and 8 totes, plus the tote-grabbing bars, with a single stalled RS550 motor with no ill effects after two district events and lots of practice. We are using a 64:1 reduction with a 0.88in diameter spool to wind up cable.
