I like seeing designs that do not use the turntable. This one seems pretty
unique. I have always had a problem with the durability of the synchro designs
out there. Is your design able to handle a large amount of weight? My designs
for synchro drives have always used the turntable and I may try one built around
your design.
My older designs:

Here is a synchro design that uses some simple NQC code mainly for bump
detection. This robot below uses a 360 degree bumper that may help with maze
solving or general navigation.

Thanks for sharing your design.

| Hi all, I just finished my "compact synchro drive". I started this project some weeks ago, and i was studing an alternative to the always used turntables (that turns the entire robot into a large, fat and heavy being). This model is very compact, (...) (20 years ago, 28-Nov-04, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
