Re: #25 Chain

#35 Chain is definitely not overkill! CIA has used chain drives in the past and #35 is the way to go, especially if you get in a pusing contest with a defending robot. Also, how big are your sprockets? Using small sprockets increases the stress on your chain. Simply using bigger sprockets lightens the load on your chain.
