Thanks Darren, this was our first year trying out a six-CIM drive and we could not be happier with how it is preforming. We're running single speed at ~14.1 ft/s IIRC. I've attached a picture of our transmissions for those curious.
The climber has been fun when it is working. The control was tough for our programming team to get down but we're happy with how it is preforming. We were running our winch at about 75% power last weekend and we intend to bump that closer to max for Central. Here's to hoping she holds together.
