2 CIMs -- practical?
Looking around these forums, I have seen a lot of teams complaining that they cannot use the 2-motor transmissions from past years. Also, every drive setup I have seen this year uses a 2 motor transmission. I am wondering if using 2 CIMs with the new transmissions is a practical way to drive a robot, seeing as it has only 1/2 the motor power of many past/present robots. I relize it won't win any pushing matches, but can it push itself with 2 CIMs with the new transmissions?
