is it just me or do the gears have insanely large pitch? and do the gears have holes in them that just might make them a bit too weak? but looks VERY compact.

My guess is a 2 speed hardshifter. Also... I believe the gear pitches were exagerated to make it a teaser... to fog the view. I think the actual pitches will be, umm, normal.
Maybe I will be 2 for 2 on teasers this year.

I hope it is, there are two gear teeth coming out of the end plate!

I maybe wrong but looks like that gearbox was drawn out in 3d studio max (a path that I have chosen to make gears back in my freshman year), those gears looks like they were made in max.

Ow!! The draw had a problem!!! The program which the team did the gear box doesn´t function very well however in the robot the gear box will be ok...

Thanks a lot!!

Good luck!
