Re: What is your favorite motor....

I don't assemble much by way of drivetrains, and if i did, i would immidiately vote for the small CIM motor. Being more of a small scale robot applications guy, i've grown extremely fond of the Globe motor. It has problems, but all those problems are obvious. If you treat it nice, it will treat you better. Just make sure to support the other end of the shaft. Banebots, once i get used to them, can possibly take its place, but they dont seem to have as much overall power, and they dont give too much of a weight benefit either.
