Go to Post PS: When/if it gets to be too easy to build a machine that can accomplish a recent/typical FRC game, then I suspect it will be time for someone to unveil a harder game. - gblake [more]

Well the wheels are from NPC and they have remarkable traction. They have a durameter of around 60 (which is quite sticky). NPC makes good robot parts. you can find their products at:

Are those Colson wheels, or similar to colson wheels?

Also, I'm interested in learning how you couple your axle to the dewalt tranny output. Also, is there a bearing right next to the dewalt tranny output?

We use 1/2" keyed shaft with transmission end turned down to fit the 0.3 x 0.25 double-D.

Yes, a bearing on the wheel mount next to the transmission - just mirror what you see on the outside wheel mount.
