The change seems to be easy to make, you have to flip over the aluminum plate (to get the right size bearings in the correct place) and punch new holes in it to clear the ends of the CIM shafts, and add a washer next to the roll pin to keep the big gear on the output shaft from moving sideways too much. Looks like a common modification.

Interesting idea any chance you have pictures you can post?

look at the pictures that 1662 recently posted of their robot, they did this too...

Today we threw our 42 teeth aluminum sprockets on the output shafts and kept the 28's on the wheels. Calculations show that we should get about 14 fps, and that's about what we got in testing today

Thanks for all your help
