Re: Can the toughbox and axles support the entire robot
We have used the short shaft without any support. I did not want to do that but Andy said it would work fine. He was absolutely correct. You are only putting 1/4 of you weight on it. It should not be a problem. We are doing it again this year with Mecanum wheels.
