How to attach gear to Banebots 550
Our team has a slight problem. When we were testing our ball collector mechanism, we burned out the Banebots 550 running the collector. It was connected to a Banebots gearbox (1:16 gear reduction, I think). We kept the motor and gearbox off the robot so we could get a new motor and replace the motor and gearbox at our competition as part of our withholding allowance.
Now here's our problem:
We got the motors yesterday, but they don't have the drive gear on them (which is expected). We had another mentor that mentors for a few teams that we think was the one who attached the gear to the previous motor.
We want to know how you would attach the gear to the drive shaft. We can guess how, but we want to know how to do it correctly.
Thanks,
Team 2855
