Re: pic: Custom drivetrain

I'm guessing the orange box is a printer or typewriter cover.

I'm with Kevin on the traction. I had thought at first those were 2008 KoP wheels, but I see they're metal. You probably want to put some sort of rubbery coating like truck bed liner on those.

Unless I'm missing the scale (they look like 8" wheels) or the robot is too wide to get very far up the batter, scrub forces are going to be horrendous.
