Re: Stronghold Drivetrain Review
We built a full Brecoflex base with the pulleys cantilevered WCD style before the team really inderstood how bad this idea was. We redesigned at the end of week four, with 10wd that looked slightly like the MCC robot, as it used the wcp wheels I had strategically purchased just in case. The four corners were fully independent suspension on coil springs with about 1 1/2" of travel. It ended up being the right choice to redo the bot that late in the season, but our students will not forget the lessons they learned about the design process for next year.
