Drive Wheel Sizes - Chief Delphi

There is something completely respectful and amazing to see FIRST teams who have members go through 4 years of the program without winning a single competition or even a single award. Those are the teams that are looked at by others and respected for what they do. - fuzzwaz [more]

Re: Drive Wheel Sizes

Smaller wheels also put a smaller moment on the axles when the wheels scrub during a turn. Less force on the axles is usually a good thing.
