Do the CIM motors emit a magnetic field?

I don't care if students, engineers, my aging grandmother, or a pack of monkeys builds the robot...as long as at least one student walks away inspired then the goal of FIRST has been reached. - Andy Grady [more]

Re: CIM MOTORS

Easy, way to check for magnetic field is is just use a CRT, slowly move the object towards the side of the monitor, as soon as it starts to distort, stop, if you get it too close, it can permanently damage the monitor.

With our monitors, a CIM will start messing with it from about 1 foot away, not that bad, but still pretty strong.

Why, you worried about it interfering with something?
