Re: pic: When One BaneBots Doesn't Do

In defense of the banebot's transmissions, we used them on both of our roller systems this year (with a properly supported shaft) and never had 1 issue with them. My suspicion to the teams that are having them fail is an incorrect use of them. (cantilevered load, improper alignment, etc) When these gearboxes were designed they were designed with combat robots in mind and i can say with much assurance that when used correctly for the most part they will not fail.
