Re: pic: Simple Drive Train Concept

Overall its nice but I would change a couple things. The first is this design could be simplified by just using a normal toughbox in the middle and then chaining to both outer wheels. It would be lighter as well since it would require half as many gears. Also the way the frame is laid out here gives you a relatively higher center of gravity which could make your robot less stable.
