Hi, my team (3965) is looking at using an octanum drive this upcoming season and want to build one on our own but we don't know where to start. Does anybody have one in a CAD model that we can use as a reference while designing ours.
Thank you

Our Tex Coast Drive (drivetrain formally known as butterfly) will be published hopefully with in the month. The CAD is still missing a bunch of features and we probably won't get to publishing it till after Championships. It started out as an octocanum but we switched after we broke the first 4" Mecanum roller.

Check out Secret Cities DragonFly drive (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=123887) that they published before build season it's pretty cool.
