Re: Stronghold Drivetrain Review

8-wheel drive with 8" (7.65") dia pneumatic wheels, WCD-configuration using VersaChassis and WCP single speed transmissions (4 CIMs, 14t pinions, and 14:60 2nd stage option) and #35 chain/sprockets.

We played 58 official matches over 4 events (plus around 7-8 practice matches). We played defense in quite a few of those matches, so we put plenty of abuse on the robot. Had a few issues with gearbox damage (sheared gears, loose shafts, exploded bearings) and had to replace quite a few rivets (and a couple gussets) in our chassis over the season. No issues with popped/flat tires, bent axles, or thrown chains. Never got stuck on a defenses all season long.
