Ken if you look in the first picture you will see the coupler in the reflection on the atwood motor.


Ok now that we are through that, here comes the rest of it:

2 gearboxes per a robot! Because the sprokets on the gearbox are there to drive the other 2 (or maybe 4 or belts) wheels. Also the coupler is there to attach ether the FP or the Drills (i would use the FP's becuase then you can use the stronger drill for the arm, or maybe the vandoor like they did in the past so then the dills go in the gearbox).

Now here comes the stretch:

Remember that Kingman posted thier gears there was 8 of everything? well that would mean gearboxes right? Say what would you use 8 identical gearboxes for if you only have 2 per a robot? Maybe if you split those between 2 teams? 4 per team? Remember the Frames 254 posted? (Here) well 4 of those 2 per team. How about those plates?(Here) The hole patterns and the general shape looks very close to the gearboxes kingman posted.

Whatever here is my one post per year! Enjoy
well here we go, thats the same thing i have been thinking. Since Cal games they teamed up and made a robot, im sure this year they might have similar designs which is pretty impressive. Collaboration always works!
but im curious about 254. Poofs wher is the Bell BOT!
