DART Actuator??

I was wondering whether or not you could have a DART actuator and have it count against the 6 CIM motors on the bot??? I’ve read the manual and everything but I am still confused whether or not it will or will not.

Yes, you can use a DART and yes it will count as one of your 6 CIMs if thats the motor you use with it.

You can also use it with a Mini CIM

You can power a dart with a mini cim. And if you are set on a six cim drive, you could run 2 cims plus a mini cim drive.

And since we’re on the topic, a CIMilie. http://www.vexrobotics.com/cim-ile.html

I think the Versaplanetary with 8mm output could also perform the same function, albeit at a higher price and more choices of gear ratios and motors.
