Re: Using two CIMs in the Banebots Transmission

As of now the gearboxes will be run on each independent chain geardown, on each wheel. I haven't decided what size sprockets to run yet; this is going to be one of those things we'll swap out later in testing. I assume I'll start with the stock sizes given in the KOP, then adjust accordingly. Right now our main concern is getting the bot modeled in CAD with the 4 gearboxes so we can get to work on our chassis....sprocket sizes and geardown can be adjusted later, we have tons of extra sprockets lying around.
