Re: Lighter Robots

You can use #25 chains instead of #35 (that you get in the KOP). #25 chains are twice as light, and even though they're weaker, you can still hang 6 robots (~720 lbs) on a single chain without it breaking (it can hold up to 780 lbs). Sometimes you might want to use the regular, #35 chains in arms and the like, because of the stress (just to be on the safe side, there's no reason a #25 chain will break on an arm), but there is no reason not to use them in the drive system, unless you don't have the money to buy them.
