Re: pic: Shaft Drive Bearing Blocks
I know Team 1097 did something very similar to this in 2005. It took them almost the entire 6 weeks getting the base running perfectly, but it was one heck of a bot, they won the Davis Regional.
Even with the flexible shaft coupling your frame needs to be welded very straight, and should be sturdy enough not to bend. 1097 had everything very precisely machined and put together. Is the transmissions efficiency as good as a well tensioned/aligned chain drive? I take it there are several mitre gears, as well as shaft misalignments that all add up.
