Re: pic: Prototype Drivetrain

As a team that uses a non-standard material for the majority of our robot (wood) I particularly like the steel tube suggestion. It is much stronger than an aluminum frame as well as possibly easier to find and easier to weld. I am all for teams really investigating the best materials for the job instead of just going with what they have done in the past
