Drivetrain Round-Up
This is a PowerPoint presentation that goes through the most common drivetrains in FIRST, and what their strengths and weakness are. This is all generalized, of course, there are always drives that don't necessarily conform to the strengths/ weaknesses laid out here, but most will. The list is pretty comprehensive; most drive designs are covered, but it doesn't include any information on 8WDs yet. This ommission will be corrected in a later revision.
