Re: How are teams mounting drivetrain encoders on WCD?
We had 2 different ways of including an encoder on our drive this year. Originally with our 775pro and VP gearbox we just included the encoder stage in our VP. When we moved to a CIM/miniCIM gearbox in an effort to keep it as low profile as possible, in this case it was ~2.625in tall, we had to move the encoder away from the gearbox. We moved it to the center wheel axle.
