Shifting Gearbox on Kitbot

[Steven Donow]

Last year, my high school team mentored a rookie team, and we gave them a set of AndyMark SuperShifters to use with the kitbot. The speeds were a little wonky because of the gearing of the kitbot, but mounting them was easy.* I think a lot of times teams stick with the kit gearbox with the kitbot because they choose to spend more time focusing on other aspects of their robot, as opposed to DT


*I can't speak towards the actual success of the two speeds because there was something screwy with the servo shifting so they primarily stayed in the super slow low gear
