Re: Method to direct drive HEX Shaft

Following on Chris's caveat, if you DO want to drive directly off a CIM 1:1, you can do it though a VEX Versa-Planetary, though it'll be a longer setup. You take out all the planetary stages, and the motor mount block bolts directly to the output block. To mount the CIM, you can either buy a CIM adapter from VEX, or cut down the CIM shaft an alarming amount.
