Re: CIM Motor Direct Drive or Supporting Axle
As a rule: never ever side load a motor. So you should not directly drive the wheel from the CIM Motor. You should add a set of gears/belts and pulleys/sprocket and chain to each wheel
Why to not side load the motor? You will likely destroy it. The bearings will not last as long, break and then your motor will burn out. You could also bend the shaft of it or something else can happen
