I thought of a 6/8 wheels drive base. the main wheels are lower than the other wheels by half centimeter.
The problem to implement it is that I don't want to use chains, it's an headache. But how otherwise I can connect the wheels to the motors.
I saw many sketch at Chief-Delphi but I haven't seen yet a solution to my idea.
If you have any ideas to make it work, I will be happy to hear about it.
Thanks,
Yarden

What sort of problems have you run into with chains? I know in the last couple years I have never had a problem with a properly tensioned chain and am very curious what sort of problems can arise.
As for a possible solution.
