Re: pic: 2009 robot idea

I agree there has been a trend for this and we are guilty of it as well. I have tried many different drivetrains and this method (2 plates with standoffs) really seems to be the best one I have done. It is particularly good if you are sponsored by or have access to sheetmetal stuff aka Laser or waterjet because the entire frame for the drivetrain can be knocked out in a couple hours. Also it allows for really quick assembly and wheel changes as well as it is super easy to incorporate the transmission into the frame, thus reducing weight.
