This also makes a lot of sense because the first stage is held together largely by the plastic casing, while the deeper in stages are much more secure. |

Re: pic: Sorta WCD
Just to clarify the ratios on the dewalts with the first stage removed are 12:1, 4:1, and 3:1. These are further reduced by a 22:32 sprocket reduction giving speeds of 5, 13, and 17fps (Thank you JVN for your design calculator). The chain is run past 2 idlers to put the sprocket on the drive motor in the right place to only use 1 chain rather than one for each wheel.

Re: pic: Sorta WCD
Wait, one chain per side or one chain per motor and the 2 closest wheels? While the latter sounds fine, I would not advise the former due to the fact that a single failure would render the robot un-steerable. If two chains are used per side, on the other hand, there is at least some degree of redundancy.
