My team is considering the idea of doing away with the tetrix gearbox. But I don't like the looks of that 2.5 mm motor shaft.
I believe when everyone says direct drive, they mean with the tetrix gearbox, considering you cannot alter the motors (which I assume means the gearbox connected also).

If I am wrong, please smite me. Thats what I meant whenever I said directly driven.
