Re: pic: Team 612 Drivetrain Teaser #1

If those motors are running at high speed, and lets say a robot or object is blocking your path, are you all worried about wearing out those timing belt grooves??

I've always been a bit hesitant to use belts for drivetrains. But then again, I am hesitant about all drivetrains...except for walking machines. Those are OK in my book!

-Good luck!
