JVN's Mechanical Design Calculator 2016 by JVN
This new version published for 2016 includes some small improvements.
Quote:
Incorporates the "tested" motor values from motors.vex.com
Includes drop-downs to select motors directly from gearing sheets (or you can still enter your own numbers).
Includes sheets for design of drivetrains using VEXpro and WCP gearboxes (with drop-down selection of gearing options)
Includes a sheet for articulated drives (Butterfly, Octocanum, etc) with different wheel types, and varied gearing between wheels.
Some sheets have been simplified for inexperienced users.
Sheets have been tweaked to make it easier to have "multiple iterations" on the same worksheet.
