Re: Direct Drive Four Motor System

actually, engineers prefer to use off-the-shelf components

if you have to redesign the wheel (or the transmission/gearbox) to make your robot come together, you have not done as good a job, as someone else who is able to put together an effective robot with off the shelf components.

from every perspective, custom designs are expensive

another 2¢ from Ken :^)
