Re: Poll: How many CIMs are you using?

I'm curious as to the appeal for bag motors for the intake. Originally we had bag motors as well, but after the reduction required to get that 13,000 rpm to something usable and the potential for busting a motor, we switched to a minicim. It's more robust, requires less reduction, and can be run longer without overheating. The two disadvantages would be the size and power draw, but I don't find it significant enough to get a 100:1 versa and not direct drive.
