What are those wheels? You're the second team we see with these and we can't find them on AndyMark

Re: pic: 3847 VEXpro Chassis

We built a 6-wheel drive VEXpro chassis shown in our mid-season video (non-youtube version )

6:1 single speed vex gearbox , 24:12 sprockets , 4" versa wheels, 6 motors.

We were impressed with the acceleration but also a bit worried about the sensitivity (driving straight takes some practice). We are thinking about adding exponential control to make small joystick changes less noticeable and low speeds .

I'm curious to know what ratios other teams are using ?

We went for 5.33:1, but haven't got it moving yet.

And we are planning to add exponential control.
