Improving the ReDrive

The Reduction Drive prior to the most recent test

The governor is working nicely now but I’m still not 100% happy with the fact that there is the potential for leaking oil from the oil collar to make it to the tapered roller bearings. Fortunately Mark and I have come up with a way of modifying the existing housing to switch to an oil bath setup. This should improve the drive dramatically while also making it more reliable. The best part is that I don’t have to wait months for a new housing to be machined.
