Re: Router browns out with multiple CIMS driving WCD
We're running a similar setup. We've got the 8" pneumatic wheels, WCD gear boxes with the same gear ratio (I think), 3 CIMs each side, and a 1/8" drop. The only difference is our C/C of wheels is about 7.9". We're driving and turning without an issue. I'm sure the larger C/C distance isn't helping but I wouldn't think it would cause consistent brown outs though.

Can you compress the C/C distance?

Not sure about the current. Never checked on blocks.
