Re: Drivetrains - How are you doing it?
You were close. We use 2 CIMs coupled into one dewalt per side. This direct drives our middle wheel, and we have chain running from there to our front and back wheels (6WD). We use AndyMark off the shelf 6" wheels and the middle one is lowered about an eigth inch for turning. We also use servo shifting. Our problem has been our drive shaft breaking. It happened in the quarters and semis at detroit, thank goodness for 47 and 453 winning one on their own. We have a plan to fix this for GLR and hope to be working much better.
