I beleive i read a revised rule about being able to sue now 5 CIM motors this year.... Other than that as to the reach doing the math you can roughly get about 100" of reach with a 3 pivot arm having it fold up and being able to jsut stay inside the 60" volume constraint...
Giving us credentials doesn't make your statements any more correct. We all have copies of the rule book.

<R45>C. one or two additional 2½” CIM motors (part #FR801-001 and/or M4-R0062-12) in addition to those provided in the KOP. This means that up to four, and no more, 2½” CIM motors can be used on the ROBOT.

And initially, you can't be outside the 28'x38'x60'. But AFTER the match starts, your robot is bounded by a 60" diameter, infinitely projected cylinder.
