Re: How are teams mounting drivetrain encoders on WCD?

We haven't actually run the drivetrain yet so I can't vouch for how well it holds up, but the Apex offseason robot is running encoders on the front wheel axles and made a small polycarb bracket to hold it in place.

Protip: Don't be like us, put your set screw hole somewhere where it can be accessed, not underneath the pulley/sprocket. Definitely overlooked that one.
