Go to Post Last year we saved a ton of money by using a good bit of square tubing for the frame of our robot, square tubing is a lot cheaper then C channel. We get to use so much raw material that the cost should go down in certain places. - Derrick Maust [more]

Re: Slickest drive transmission yet...

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.

Re: Slickest drive transmission yet...

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

Re: Slickest drive transmission yet...

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.

Thumbs up Re: Slickest drive transmission yet...

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?

-Kyle

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