Slickest drive transmission yet...

[Salik Syed]

This may sound wierd.......but we still haven't tested our low speed yet........haha....we will hook up the current sensors etc...AT COMPETITION!!! (funny i know) ....but they actually said their transmission doesn't give a different torque......torque remains constant....as for ours we still think it might give dif torque outputs but they say it won't..........we probably have to test it....... lol...
btw AWESOME transmission........just saw the pic

I do belive that a lot of the teams that saw the 4 speed where very impressed. By the end of the day i was tired of explaning the thing.

Is there a picture of the real thing? That would serve us both better than me asking a bunch of questions. Thanks.

I am from team 481 and i am tryuing to build a 3 speed
shift on the fly atomated pinion gear transmission.

My teacher saw your design and he was blown away and he wants me to build one for next year i am just looking for suggestions and a little help(pictures would be nice)
on how to build one of these transmissions.

The lead engineer, Jim Zondag, is in the process of moving into a new house and is swamped at work from what I hear. I'll talk to him at the Sweet Repeat (October 9th) and see when he's planning on posting the papers.

At Nationals my team was right next to the Killerbees, so I saw their gearbox demo thingy a lot. I think it is the coolest one I saw. Also, I just don't say that because of how it works, I say that partially because they explained to some of us how it worked etc. I wonder who will build off their design next year? Or who will go bigger and better?

I would also like to thank 33 for being great "pit mates".
