Re: pic: Possible Team 114 Drive Component

I'm curious as to why you choose such a large wheel diameter? If you went to a smaller wheel, you could make a considerably more compact, and lighter gearbox. Its not as if their are any field features that require a large wheel either.

Also, with a smaller wheel, you don't need as much reduction in the gearbox itself, creating a more even more compact and lighter gearbox.
