Also, as has been pointed out, FIRST did say that using the CIM motor with the geared output shaft and the coupling gear that came with the kit in 2002 is not legal this year... Just hope you are aware.
Best of luck!

Well we found out the hard way that the drills turn on earlier (i belive) then the CIM's. So what was happening was we would bend out shafts pretty bad so what we did was put the CIM's on one side and the drills on the other, there is a little difference but nothing our drivers can not fix. Also the only other difference is the CIM's roll after you let off the joy stick where the Drills stop right away.
All and all it worked very well for us last year and hope for the same this year.
Not sure about the coupling of the output shaft rule or what ever so I'm not even going to attempt to answer...
