Re: 4 Wheel Drive Too Much Traction
Running through the JVN calculator, your current drive train has an overall reduction of 4.67:1. It yields a top speed of 24.13 ft/sec. You need to at least twice that amount of reduction.
My I suggest swapping out the belt drive to chain with the following sprockets.
12 tooth on the transmissions and a 30 tooth on the wheels.
That will increase your reduction to 11.67:1, drop your top speed to 9.65 ft./sec, and give you enough torque to turn.
The sprockets you want are available from both AndyMarh and VexPro.
