Like I've said before, every bit counts in the long run

Personally, (not criticizing) but i think that takes away from the community. Patenting a drive train makes it a little awkward if a team makes a drive system somewhat similar, and then somehow it ends up they sue them over it or something. I'm not saying they would, but if they wouldn't, then why patent?
I'll let someone higher answer that one...

Odd thoughts yes...but I'm just curious as to why you would do that?
Please refer to previous answer...

And oh yes...an explanation of the system would be rather cool. I think I have it figured out but it's probably totally off.
You are comming to St Louis, come and see it for yourself

[edit] one more question, if someone were to pick that end of the robot up, would the balls fall out? or are they attached?[/edit]
They are attached
