Re: Compact 3CIM Single Speed Gearbox Review

This gearing is rather fast for most of the recent FRC games; implemented on the recent control system, I would definitely schedule some tests to ensure that you will not have brownouts at startup or (more likely) during pushing contests due to low voltage. Your optimal speed will, of course, be highly dependent on your game strategy, which cannot possibly be known until January; just intended as a "what you really need to check" between making a game strategy and selecting this as a drive train.
