Re: Gearing and Drive Motors

We're using a pair of VexPro 3-CIM Ball Shifters on our drive with 2 CIMs + 1 MiniCIM on each gearbox.

The gearboxs use the 3.68x spread options between the high and low gears and also has a 3rd stage reduction giving us an overall ratio of 7.08:1 (10.85ft/s with 4in wheels) in high gear, and 26.04:1 (2.95ft/s) in low gear.
