Re: 6 wheel drive with chain tensioners and shifting

looks like our frame weighs 22 lbs and the gearboxes/motors/wheels weigh 23 lbs

I like the sound of these, I will suggest them to the other students.


With the women comment, that is just what we have always called our bots, mainly due to the fact that our whole design and fab team is male.... I can see how the comment could easily be misconstrued.


Thanks for all the input guys.

Re: 6 wheel drive with chain tensioners and shifting

If you want me to, I'll run stress on the CAD. If you want, I'll also see what I can do to strengthen/lighten it.

Re: 6 wheel drive with chain tensioners and shifting

Actually my mentor showed me how to run the side panels and their supports as a single part, which apparently is a good enough approximation. I will post the files though if anyone wants to look at them.

Only if you're up for it. I am interested in seeing the result file though.
