Did you use a worm to get the reduction you wanted to to change the output angle? OR Why did you not use bevel gears?
Been thinking about a right angle drive for years just get the cims out of the way.

To me, it seems like mounting the CIMs sideways would be more trouble than it's worth. Although it certainly is a beautiful gearbox and cool design, I've never really been concerned with CIMs taking up too much room in the center of the robot.

Also, if I remember correctly, worm gears are fairly inefficient, even with four tooth worms. Do you know how efficient the gearbox is compared to, say, a toughbox?

Is the one motor just supposed to run backwards, or did you gear it to reverse it's direction?

The gearbox was designed and built entirely by students. There was no Mentor or adult help with this project. This is a great running gearbox that has great potential for better utilization of the center of the robot.

You said that you where going to release the CAD files onto FRC Designs, I can not find it though. Am I just missing it or has it not yet been posted?

At the time it was my intention to release the CAD drawings onto FRC designs. However, I have since sold the design to AndyMark so I will no longer be doing so.

Alright, do you think i could get the part numbers of the gears used?
