Re: Drive system vs. ground pickup
Have you thought about using the Dewalt XRP Transmissions? Team 228 is using them this year; since we are only using two small CIMs and two Dewalt transmissions for our drivetrain, we had plenty of weight left over for a floor ball gatherer. The Dewalts on our robot are geared for a stump-pulling 3ft/sec, a moderate 8ft/sec and zippy 12ft/sec through the Dewalts.
