Re: pic: Team 100 Prototype ('09 Edition)

Very elegant and simple. 35 lbs with 4 CIMs on the drive train (pre-electronics) is very reasonable. One concern and one question though:

It's unknown whether or not we will be forced to use the Jaguar in '09, so I'd recommend making another electronics board where the 'victors' are 60% bigger. I admit, I haven't kept up with the Jaguar thread so I don't really know.

How are the chains tensioned? I see how the two chains coming off the transmission could be auto-tensioned via sliding (barring clearance issues with the CIMs), but for the front two wheels will it work the same way?
