How are you dealing with the difficulties of adding a drop using the chain-in-tube system? Were you able to add a drop somehow or are the wheels different diameter?

(or is that 3x1 tubing and I'm just missing it)

Haha Thanks! We had some fun with the rendering tools
And we're actually using vexpro 16t sprockets, which lets us have a 1/8 inch drop. but because of that we had to make the side rails 2x1.5x.125 in order to be able to hold everything. we're not a fan of that decision, but the drop center was worth it in our opinion.
And we may have to revise the bumper supports, because the 2014 rules somewhat mentions needing to support the corners (the wording is not very clear). We have a solution for this, its just slightly larger (it provides better support too, for a more defensive game.) When I get that finished I'll put up another render.
