Re: pic: 1305 Frame design with trannies

Looks like a great drive unit! Nice and compact, too. One suggestion: install them so the motors on both sides are turning in the same direction. (DC motors are almost always optimized for higher efficiency in one direction) Generally speaking, you want your highest efficiency in the robot's forward direction. This will give you slightly better torque and will be easier to balance for driving in a straight line.
