Re: A New Drivetrain

Sounds like good reasoning to me.

You might want to consider a single beam for each pod with a wheel cantilevered off of each side on a dead axle. Possibly with the dead-axle welded in place. Some 1" square steel tube or 1.5" square aluminum tube might do the job. Just a thought...
