Re: 1511 Prototype Drivetrain
IIRC, 1114 has used a similar chain setup in the past as far as tensioners and #35 chain. They use the biggest sprocket possible and nylon tube on a dead axle to act as tensioners that push on top of the chain in their sheet metal drive from 2013. Take a look if you have a chance. I did a lot of research on that bot and found a lot of the stuff they did to be quite simple and elegant.
