In my engineering class I have had several students working on a concept drivetrain that we are hoping to build before the season starts. We really like using 80/20, so that's what we started with on the frame. We have our 3-D printed corner pieces on it along with new motor and wheel mounts. It's a 6 CIM direct drive to one wheel and belt drive to the other 4" Vex Wheels. We have the VEX shifting gearbox in it geared for 22 FPS and 10 FPS (wanted to go slower, but they were out of stock of one of the gears we needed - but I believe they are in now, so we'll get those in soon, swap them out and we'll be at 18.1 and 8.4 or 6.9 if we go with the different ratio). We don't have the pneumatic cylinders in it just yet, but will hopefully by the end of the week. Also, if you happen to have seen the 118's drivetrain, we based it off of that concept.

If you have any suggestions or questions let us know!

Also, I tried to include this in the Extra - Discussion forum, but I wasn't able to. I hope this is the correct location for this thread.
