Re: pic: 1683 Concept 8 Wheel Drive

I actually have made a new version that incorporates the transmission into the side plate to help with mounting. As for using bigger wheels, I am trying to use as small as possible wheels because of the weight savings of the actual wheels as well as smaller sprockets to achieve the same rpm. Additionally if we are going to be custom making the wheels the smaller size costs less in raw material, as well as the smaller side plates cost less
