Re: pic: Team 192's 2014 Gearbox

This gearbox is simply gorgeous! Really love how it looks, obviously... but it certainly looks like it's filled with so much design!

I assume it's just the two stages, given the space on the gearbox and your speeds (19.5 and 8.5 fps)? Are those numbers theoretical, adjusted, or actual? I'm curious how you find the 3 CIMs combined with such high gearing... Seems like - especially for a full weight robot - that could be very battery-intensive.
