| − | '''1 wheel drive, right angle''': This is used only on [[antweights]], to make a powerful HS. You can drive forward/backward using the right angle and turn left/right using the recoil of the spinner motor. | + | '''1 wheel drive, right angle''': This is used only on [[antweights]], to make a powerful [[HS]].

| − | '''2WD, right angle''': Most lightweight classes use this setup. Decent speed. Used on MW's where a lot of the weight is put towards heavy weaponry. Ideal for MW horizontal spinner. | + | '''2WD, right angle''': Used widely by LW's and make for a decent drive. |
| | + | Personally, most of my LW's use Z-tek drive, but it's just because i don't like slow bots, and i'm not forcing to use it. Most builders say this drive is enough on MW HS's and they could be right because i have little experience on HS's. |

| − | '''2WD, Z-tek ''': Neat for speedy LW's and decent for MW, although not very fast. | + | '''2WD, Z-tek ''': Neat for speedy LW's and decent for MW, although not very fast. |
| | + | Good for [[Popup]]s or [[Rammer]]s. |
| | | | |
| − | '''2WD, HP Z-tek''': Makes for very fast lightweights (you'll need practice your control while driving), neatly fast middleweights and average heavyweights. Use at least that on a HW if you want decent speed. Better than 4WD Z-tek because lighter for the same power. | + | '''2WD, HP Z-tek''': Makes for very fast lightweight rammers (you'll need practice your control while driving). |
| | + | Most MW rammers and popups use this drive. |
| | + | This is the average drive on a HW. Better than 4WD Z-tek drive because lighter for the same power. |
| | | | |
| − | '''3WD''': You're on crack, non-symmetrical and hard to work with in Stock. Although, a few Sit & Spins and Full Body Spinners have used a 3WD setup. | + | '''3WD''': As said by one of my idols, you're on crack. |
| | + | This is extremely difficult to work with, often resulting on asymmetric bots that. |
| | + | It reduces translating speed but increases turning speed. But I must say it is perfect for a MW [[SnS]]. |
| | | | |
| − | '''4WD, HP Z-tek''': Very fast on a MW. That makes a nice drive for a HW. | + | '''4WD, HP Z-tek''': Very fast on a MW (use this on a SnS and a rammer if you want). |
| | + | If you want a good HW popup, use this. Also useful in HS killers. |
| | | | |
| − | '''6WD, HP Z-tek''': The best HW Rammers/Pistons use 6WD. | + | '''6WD, HP Z-tek''': The best drive train for HW Rammers. Several succesful [[Poker]]s use this too (not mine). |
| | | | |
| − | '''8WD, HP Z-tek''': OK, now this is beginning to be too much. | + | '''8WD, HP Z-tek or more''': Too much, even for a HW rammer. You need weapons on your bot, too... |
| − | | |
| − | '''10WD HP Z-tek or more''': You're insane.
