Yes totally agree ! and if I remember correctly it was a reason I started my own thread - to share my learning experience
so I will keep true to this and add in my limited experience in this terrific hobby
Today I was adding in some details to the drive sprockets and fixing details:
The drive and transmission has been the most time sapping process to date. as I am not of a engineering background this has taken maybe far longer than it should have. Although there are a few very amazing scratch builds on this forum there wasn't enough details to help me make a knowledgeable decision in my build. So this is what I have gone with :
24v motors

1:2 reduction bevel gears to make right angle transition
Linear and thrust bearing on the internal shaft + locking nut
Tapered roller bearing in the hub/sprocket to sort out both axial and radial loads?
I will post some pics of the setup this week to illustrate
more details to follow
