Combat Robot Drivetrain Design Guide Part 2 - Mechanics, Reductions, and More!

Today's video is the conclusion of my drivetrain design series! This series focusses on creating an ideal drivetrain for your next Battlebot, combat robot, or another robotics project. Here I talk about options for transmitting torque to your wheels and achieving the ideal gear reductions. The last video showed how to calculate the ideal gear ration and choose the best motor, so check that out first!
