CIM motor question

[BBray_T1296]

MiniCIMs were designed as a drop-in replacement for the CIM. They certainly work in parallel with each other.

The MiniCIM is widely regarded as 2/3's of a CIM, as it has roughly that much available power ratio.

This being said, the MiniCIM and CIM are very similar early on in the power curve, with all but the more strenuous situations being handled just as easily by the Mini as its larger counterpart. This leads many teams to prefer the Mini in systems, as they find the torque advantage of the larger not worth its additional weight.
