Lightbulb Dewalts Used Last year
This year a few mentors and alumni from Team 521 Broke off and started a New team a few towns over.
Our machining capabilities are fairly limited and we are looking for a simple way Change gear ratios. The Nothing but Dewalts paper looks promising and we spoke of using them last year, but in the end decided against it. What i am wondering is how they faired in competition last year? I know many teams used them last year if you could explain any problems you had with construction or in competition that would be great.

Also has anyone thought about putting the new minibike cim into a dewalt deill transmission? If so was it successful?

Thanks a lot!
