Re: chains
I know this is posted elsewhere, but I will post it again.
We use #25 chain all the time in our drive systems. Last year we used #35 chain to connect our transmissions to our back wheels. We then connected our front and back wheels with #25 chain. That way if your #25 chain breaks due to high loads or some other reason you will still be able to drive around. Of course only with 3 wheel drive... that is if you do a 4 wheel drive robot.
EXAMPLE:
Last year when one of our gears connecting the front and back wheels shattered into many pieces, we were still able to climb and drive around the field.
Just remember it is better to have #25 chain break than your transmissions!
