How do you think 121 finished their robot so fast? You think they spent hours and weeks designing some crazy three-speed transmission? No. Just a kit-frame with some simple upgrades...
We like to keep things simple and the kitbot + the old IFI or new AndyMark transmissions have been our standard for the past few years. Tweak the sprocket gearing a bit, bump the middle wheel up or down, and voila, we are usually up and running by the first weekend. Then we can spend lots of time working on a game piece manipulator while the kids practice driving.
