This is the future home of the Mech Team(s) wiki. Topics to be covered:

DRIVE TRAIN
- drivetrain101/physics of driving (torque, friction, cg, tipover, drive styles)
- wheels (sizing, surface, tire pressure, footprint/quantity, choices/limitations + advantages, secondary hardware requirements, tanks vs wheel)
- motors (torque/current, efficiency, burn-in, choices/limitations+ advantages, secondary hardware requirements)
- encoders (choices/limitations + advantages)
- rails/chassis (cots options, diy options, choices/limitations + advantages, secondary hardware requirements)
- gear boxes (gear ratios, diy vs. cots, shifters)
- advanced topics (specialized designs)
- good practices (mass props, icds, cg tracking, standard hardware)
