Re: Tread and brownouts
Two things I learned back in 2010.
- Check your "contact patch" if its too long you may have excessive scrub
- Increase the gear reduction to get more torque to overcome scrub
Can you please post the configuration of your drivetrain? I suspect that you have a large contact patch between your pulleys that contact the ground. You may need to create a "drop center" like most teams do with a wheeled drivetrain.
