[EWCP]-11-27-11 Drivetrain Design

[Akash Rastogi]

The next EWCPCast will be about how FRC drivetrains have evolved over the years, including the change after the inception of AndyMark and the kit chassis. We will discuss decision making for drivetrains as well as the evolution of drivetrains in FIRST.

We have arranged for Aren Hill (1625 alum, 3928 mentor), Ranjit Chahal AKA R.C. (1323), Adam Heard (973) to join us for this cast. We are still waiting on a few others to confirm their availability.

Our very special guest will be the man, the myth, the legend who invented swerve/crab drive in FRC, Dr. Joe Johnson (former 47 mentor, 3958 mentor).

Once again we are asking for your input, what should we ask our panel of distinguished guests?

The cast will be the usual time on Sunday November 27th (9pm EST) at the usual place. Hope to see you there. We will post links and other documents as we develop them with the panel of guests and as you all post your questions here.

Please present questions in a coded or bullet list.

And, as always, if you have an idea for a cast or would like to help us in any way please contact us here via PM, at our Facebook page.
