Re: 6WD questions

Regarding lowering the center wheel when driven directly from the motor/gearbox. How can you make it adjustable up and down or do you make the outer wheels up and down adjustable? Which method is easier to maintain and more effective over time?QUOTE]
I'm not the most mechanically inclined, but I don't understand why you would want to adjust the wheels. What I've seen is that the center wheel is dropped down (no more than half an inch, I believe) permanently. This allows the center to wheel to always have contact with the ground, and you'll always have four wheels on touching the floor. I'm fairly certain (correct me if I'm wrong) that most of the six wheel drives in FRC are never truely "six wheels touching the floor driving" type drives (unless its a six wheel swerve).
