Re: 6 CIM Drivetrains... What's Your Experience?

My Team is using 6 CIMS this season with a 5.95:1 ratio. it was relatively cheap and we figured we could go faster than most and push the basic bot and hit hard. When it come to a pushing battle, we have enough experience with tank to know that no matter what gear ratio or amount of CIMs, No robot can ever push us sideways, so if we can assist and get across the field quickly, and effectively stop anyone because we can go back and forth extremely quickly, so anyone faster than us, we can push, slower than us, we can block. Thats just what we choose to do from what our experiences are. I like the idea of a fast robot because you can cover more, if you're a rookie team or newer team, and you build the six motor drivetrain, and something to pick up the ball, and drove well and fed well, than you would be a great alliance pick. 6 CIMs with a good driver is a great way to set yourself apart and a great back up if something fails on your robot.
