Re: [FTC]: Can I add non-slip material to 4" Tetrix Wheels?
F,
I recommend that teams do not mount the wheels directly on the motor output shaft. The bearings are not meant for that and the friction increase with robot weight. It is suggested that wheel shafts be mounted using the bearings that are part of the kits. this reduces friction, gives more predictable and repeatable performance and lowers battery draw.
