Yeah, the motors are in the same gear. I never considered before the fowards/backwards thing before, and at this stage it will be very difficult to solve., as this weekend we're integrating all of our systems to the frame. I think programming will be our only fix. We are using casters sadly as we don't have the time and the space in the bot to put in 2 more gearboxes.
Cory, or anyone who knows what he's talking about, which metal tabs are you referring to? And which section is the clutch? (I think I know but I'm not possitive?) Our motors are fully assembled minus the pins in the tranny.
Also, on the work bench, the motors noticably differ in how they turn when we rotate the shafts they are connected to. One of the motors is stiffer than the other. This could be that foward backward thing again, but we're not sure. We know it's not the gearboxes because we've balanced those so there's little binding.
Thanks everyone for you help!!!
