Re: Question About 4-Wheel Drive

Don't forget to implement some type of chain adjustment or tensioning in your design. This year for time and simplicity we didn't do this and had one of the longer chains stretch allot. There was never time between matches to deal with it. We where lucky it didn't get bad enough to derail. Next year we will deal with it. A commercial chain tensioner isn't cheap. However it's not too hard to make your own.
