Tehehehe yes those numbers are correct and legal
Kudos to anyone that can figure out how crazy we are

OK, a minimum of 11 motors if the Bag option is used: - 4 CIMs which can power either drive or climber
- 2 CIMS + 2 minis which power drive but cannot be switched to climber
- 2 775 pros for the climber, possibly the same as the 2 for the shooter
- 1 Pro/Bag for the intake, possibly the same as the one for the indexer
Wild guess: - Mecanum, 2 CIMs on rear wheels, 1+1 on front (or vice versa).
- Another shaft friction couples with/engages with shooter and rear wheels to power the climber.
- Just for kicks, the same motor powers the intake and indexer, because while you're shooting, you're only taking in your missed shots at the intake.
