Go to Post The object of the team is not to design, build and compete a robot, it is to design, build and compete students. If after four years we have opened a student's eyes to the infinite possibilities they have in their life, it is worth all the effort. - adunakin [more]

What we do is machine out the hub because of the draft (i.e. taper) inside the hub and then we insert a custom machined hub into the wheel, typically the ID of that new hub is 3/4" then we use a trantorque to couple the wheel to a shaft. It's pretty stright forward, one of the tricks is to try and make the new custom hub as lightweight as possible. -Joe
