Re: Custom Two Speed Gearbox
The 18 fps is actual.

I understand that this 18fps is a very fast speed, especially for FIRST robots. Essentially our team would like to have a proof of concept, with "swappable" gearboxes for our practice bots.

This "swappable" gearboxes will allow this drive train to be used as a very robust prototyping tool, come next build season.

Thank you, I will check out this gearbox calculator.

I'll keep you posted, as I inevitably will need more help from the CD community.
