Re: pic: 6 wheel drive with a suspension

One thing to note here. If your pivoting the "modules" about the steel tubes (that's my assumption) then whenever your suspension moves the distance between the steel tubes is going to change. Seem like it could be hard to mount other robot pieces on a dive base that keeps changing size.

I can see why you might use the helical gears just to save space in the chassis but it would seem like the price wouldn't justify the cost. Although if you had some of the old helical gears from 2004 and previous season lying around I would definitively see the benefit.
