Re: Drivetrain, what did you use?

Team #? 159
# of years of participation? 6? i dunno
# and type of motors? 4 drive motors, 2 drill and 2 Fischer Price (until we had to redo our drive @ regionals to 2 drill tank drive w/ casters >_<
# and type of drive wheels? 2 drive, 6 inch dia.
# and type of non-drive wheels? 2 casters >_<
Transfer system(chains, belts, etc.)? gears. custom gearboxes... ah will do better next year.
Success? Well, with just 2 motors, we still had quite a bit of power...
Problems? FP motors destroyed, aka, no translational
Next year? Ah well, work on that again... so that it works ;D
