Re: pic: 6 Wheel drive Rh side
Dan and Gus you're both right. Yes, the chain meshes on both sides of the sprocket and the sprocket on the transmission is in the position of the second idler Gus shows. There is no chain/sprocket contact that is less than 120 deg of circumference. In fact both end sprockets are almost 240 deg. We played around with many designs for a single chain six wheel drive during the off season and this one is the one that met our requirements (reliable, durable, and simple). We've run it and this design seems to be nuke proof. However, the true test will be on the field with other robots.
