Re: Transmisson?

We used the white paper as a reference to use the Dewalts in 2006. They worked fine. We even used a single Dewalt trans with two CIM motors on the input side. We built a custom dual motor mount and 3:1 reduction gears that fed into the single Dewalt trans that we shifted with the servos in the KOP. It was a pretty good system. The beauty of the Dewalt trans is that it is very light, especially compared to last year's Banebot trans.
