Re: Possible to do multi-speed transmission with v-belt?
Team 151 (my hs team) tried this idea...and having no luck at all. Theoretically, yes the theory is good, but it's a hassle to always keep each belt in tension (to a degree) to keep it working, and the belts ALWAYS slipped. My question is why do you want to go this route? Seems to me a geared box would be smaller and more effiecient, with what you give up in cost you make up for in robustness. Just my $.02 worth of experience
