Re: Mechanum Gear Ratio Recommendations

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I guess I need to order some larger sprockets for the wheels (we only have 26 tooth or smaller). We really want to use the CIMple Box due to its lower weight. With the 4.8:1 GR out of the box and a 12 tooth driver sprocket, I need to get a 28 to 30 tooth sprocket at the wheels to get close to the 12:1 GR.

By the way, how was it to strafe sideways at the 12:1 GR? Did it still perform pretty well?
