Re: pic: SLOW AND STEADY/FAST AND FURIOUS

It uses a technokat style dog to shift. In low it goes about 3.3 ft/sec and will push two large guys at a time on carpet. In high it goes about 10 ft/sec. (Actual not theoretical) Each trannsmissions weighs only 8.5 lbs including the motors and shifter. And these trannsmissions include all the gearduction stages for the drive train so there are no chains and sprockets in our drive train. That big cylinder isn't actually that big, it just looks that way because its really close to the camera.

And the motors arn't stacked since those trannies are only 3" tall. And the other motor is a CIM motor.
