Re: Wormbox drive trains

I could backdrive the Wormbox at IRI by hand quite easily, so I would imagine it is pretty efficient. While high efficiency is generally a good thing, it does mean that the benefits to a defensive robot's drive train are limited.

I would suggest looking into something like team 25's servo-actuated brakes if being pushed is something you absolutely cannot tolerate.
