Re: Drive Motors

We had pneumatic dog shifting (shifton the fly) tranmission with completely custom designed and manufactured gearboxes. We used 4 CIM's and 2 FPs.

Re: Drive Motors

Cyber Blue used the traditional 4 small cims
We were cool and shifted with servo motors (They don't like to shift on the fly very well though...)

Re: Drive Motors

We used 4 small CIMs on DeWalt transmissions, in a holonomic configuration. It was a bit of overkill, as we never really utilized the shifting feature. It was cool to say we had a shifting omni-drive robot, though, even if we didn't use it
