Re: Best Drivetrain

once you build a drivetrain, it becomes very easy to build again from scratch, so although it may seem prebuilt (because they finish so fast) its not, its just they have all the resources set up to build something, all bugs were worked out on the other system, and all upgrades were prototyped.

I know for a fact it took us 3 weeks to build our Linkage drive during build season, and I know we could put another one together (given we have metal to do so) in about 4 days. Once you have a plan, things come together very easily.
