Go to Post Overall, I thought FIRST did a great job with the rules this year - very simple and very clear for the most part. However, something is always going to fall through the cracks (and I don't mean that in a bad way - people need to know that it's practically impossible to do something perfectly). - Chris Hibner [more]

Re: Dual wheel per axle set crab-steer concept

Dual wheel wouldn't give you too much advantage for the added weight and complexity. However, if you did want to go with it, you don't need a differential. All you would need is a miter gear at a 90 degree angle from the axel of the dual wheels. This would effectively give you perfect transmission of power (with only a slight loss of efficiency).
