Re: pic: CVT drivetrain

I have been fascinated with CVTs for a while and have wondered if any teams have successfully used them in FIRST. I know of the CCT but it is not really a CVT as I understand it. From what I can gather from this thread the only successful use of a true Toroidal CVT was Team 190 in 2002. Is this correct? I was not involved with FIRST before 2004 so I have no knowledge of it. Was it a Full-Toroidal or Half-Toroidal design? Can anyone point me toward some photos of it or a white paper or anything so I can see how it looked? Whether or not a true CVT is appropriate for FIRST robots (depending on the particular game) is a whole separate issue. I just think they are a cool idea and would love to see how Team 190 did it in 2002. A picture is worth a thousand words...

Thanks,
Chuck
