Go to Post Look at the success of the Banebot's gearboxes this year. Cheap, light, small, and a lot of people are using them, even though their quality may be a bit questionable... Make a similar gearbox for a drivetrain (with a bit more robustness) and I think you've got a winner. - Ben Piecuch [more]

Re: CIM Voltage and Motor Suggestions

Well at max power, the CIM is gonna be drawing around 100A at 18V, so it's going to have to sink about 1200W of heat or so. Which is a good bit. I'm not saying it's going to catch fire, but you're probably going to want some sort of cooling on it. I figure a ballpark estimate would be a rise of atleast 1 deg C every second the motor is running at max power at 18V, probably more.

And don't forget you'll want a pair of Victor 885s to power those.
