Re: pic: Two Motor, 4WD

First of all, great job Matt. It is nice to see a transmission which can be build and put on a robot. Remember the night when we were talking about transmission and mechanisms in general and how you said that you wanted to design something that works? Well here it is… you did it.

Now some questions…

Are you going to add stands between the two plates? How are the two plates attached to the plate on the bottom? I am guessing screws? Even if you put screws on the bottom, personally I would use stands between plates. How thick are those plates?

Do you plan to take out any weight from the gears/plates?

I am guessing that the transmission is about 8” by 4” by 2”… am I right? How much does this thing weigh?

Looking at the Top view... I think you can make the gearbox thinner. It will be a bit of work, because you will have to modify the plate on the bottom.

Can't wait to see the new version.
