 FIRST is hard. It's supposed to be. We can't keep giving people a check and expecting them to succeed. We need to stop this model. It takes a village to raise a child but it takes a community to build a FIRST team. - Andrew Schreiber [more] |

Re: Drivetrain Critiques
Try to keep the wheels as close to the perimeter. If the game involves a ramp of some kind the wheels will come off the ground when the front or back tube hits the ramp. You might try running the front/back tube at a 45 deg angle.
Here is a picture of what I am talking about: https://picasaweb.google.com/1177698...07353715384594 If you can bend flanges into your G10 belly plate it would strengthen the pan considerably and give you a flange to rivet the plate into the side tubes. |
