Our drivetrain does not have the center wheel dropped.

We also have noticed the front CIMs on our drivetrain getting really hot.

We just checked and its from the drivetrain cims. But the front cims are drawing the most power while the back cims aren't anywhere near that
Please post the actual numbers, and include what command was being given to the CIMs.

Did you guys do any calculations before selecting wheel diameter and gear ratio?
