Re: pic: Prototype Drivetrain
Replace all the 1/16th wall aluminum with 0.035" wall 4130 steel square tubing. You'll improve chassis strength, stiffness, maintain the same weight, and your welder will have an easier time.
With a steel frame you could also use weld-in nuts which could save you weight and make it easier to wrench on the robot
