Re: what do you think ???

great start!!

A general rule of thumb is to have atleast 120 degrees of chain wrap around a sprocket. A drive sprocket should get 180.

1. Chain stretches
2. your robot will be pushing against other.

it will likely skip as the chain loosens and you push against other bots in competetions.

I would definitely recommend getting more wrap on that chain.
