Re: Using dual motors in Chain-Drivesystem
if you want a simple way to make a 4 motor drive train, gear each motor down to the correct range, and then connect each one to a seperate wheel. That way any inconsistencies will be taken care of by way of the slipping of the wheels instead of putting an excess amount of strain on a gearbox.
it is relatively easy to make an all chain gearbox - we did it last year on our bot. the front two wheels were driven by drills and the back two by the chips.
