Re: Minibot climb rate

Getting similar times on direct drive prototypes and 2-1 gear ratio prototypes... we are assuming similar times is due to gearing inefficiency and the added weight of all the extra gears, spacers, etc... The question is, how much better can we expect if we lighten up the Tetrix gears and improve gear alignment???
