Re: Gearing down motors
You definitely need to gear them down. They spin at something like 4000 RPM's... way too fast for a drive train. Geared down appropriately, the CIM's will provide plenty of torque and speed.
This year, however, you may not need as much torque as you did in the past. The ease of using the drill motors is a strong argument to stick with them.
