Re: Kit bot wheels and chassis assembly

what we did was drill out the holes to 5/8" and use an 1/2" ID and 5/8" OD flange bearing. The only thing that made we question this was that it removes the metal around the lowered hole completely in a small section. The bearing takes care of that load. It worked without problems for a regional and an off season event. It's still running now.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
