 Bomb squad, that grabber was the coolest way to grab a tetrahedral object in the history of grabbing tetrahedral objects. - IronVulture [more] |

modifying banebots transmissions
Anyone in CD land ever successfully modified a banebots transmission to remove a layer or two?
TIA |

Re: modifying banebots transmissions
Yes, many times. It's a piece of cake- you just need to know what you are doing with a lathe. Also check this out for how to keep them from grenading on you: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...our+ banebots
Be warned- they are very fragile! |

And just so you don't have to read through the posts by the skeptics - the output shaft mod as described worked flawlessly through our whole competition with no failures.

Re: modifying banebots transmissions
I got a reply from banebots - they said to buy a shorter ring gear and shorter screws and simply remove a stage!
Thanks for the help CDers! |

You don't need to buy anything- just turn the ring gear down on a lathe to shorten it and cut the screws down... No need wasting $$ and waiting a week for a new ring gear.

Re: modifying banebots transmissions
I second the DIY approach. In fact we took a stage out of 4 P80's last gear for our drive train with an end mill (our lathe didn't have the proper tools). They held up perfectly through two regionals.
