Go to Post Do not treat Vex and FLL as inferior because they may not get as much exposure as FRC on these boards. Just remember, FLL has seven times more teams than FRC from twenty additional countries. - artdutra04 [more]

Drive train questions

We are looking at doing a 6WD system this year and had initially looked at having 2cims direct drive the center wheels and then use belts or chains to power the outer wheels.The design has evolved into using a single cim on each center wheel that is chained to the front and using another cim to direct drive each rear wheel. Does anyone see any issues with the evolved setup.I am concerned about matching speeds between wheel sets and a potential loss of power, but I may be worrying for nothing. Thanks for your thoughts.
