It's certainly possible (no different than adding another stage), but be careful what gearbox you put at the output of your shifter. The AM Planetary is designed to be used with a single 9015 motor at very high speeds and low torques (up 0.4 Nm to at stall) at the input. By comparison, two CIMs through a 10:1 reduction would give up to 48 Nm at the input to the AM Planetary (that's 100 times more
). I don't know how the AM Planetary in particular is rated, but usually gearboxes exploding is a bad thing.
