Go to Post By the looks, 1114 has already figured out both #1 and #2. They're still behind 71, who is just about done with their robot for the 2012 season, is getting driver practice for 2011, and is working on their robot designs for the 2013 water game. You're still way behind. - EricH [more]

This would be very useful, depending on the input motor and the reduction there would be significant torque on the bevel gears( if bevel gears were used). It might be difficult to find small enough bevel gears that would be able to take the torque.

How efficient are bevel gears? I've heard worm gears can be quite in-efficient.

I know team 33 made a tutorial on how to modify a versa-planetary and a drill/driver right angle adapter to accomplish this:
