Re: pic: 1726 Overdrive Chassis CAD
Today we built the transmissions and put an axle on a scrap piece of c-channel to test how strong it is. The axle setup is very solid, and i can't see it breaking under any load the robot will see.

Re: pic: 1726 Overdrive Chassis CAD
My team has used a cantilevered dead axle system for the past three years with only one major issue that i can remember: bumper mounts. Last year's solution, which proved to be waaay too much trouble was to tap holes into the axles to receive the bolts from our bumpers. May I suggest that you consider integrating mount points into the frame. (I'm pretty sure you already have an adequate solution, though.)
