Re: lift winch ideas anyone?

Can we use more than 4 CIMs? I forget what the rule is.

Thanks![/quote]

this year you are allowed to use up to five CIMs... We are using a 32:1 BaneBot Transmission with a CIM powering it, and it is hooked up to a custom winch system that we built... the one thing that you have to worry about is if you are using any type of airplane cord or such(anything besides an arm) than you will have to make some type of guide to stabilize the robot while you are grappling up.
