The center is now COMPLETELY finished! I worked for 5 hours in the senior design workshop to get it done.. painstaking measurements paid off, everything fit pretty much perfectly on the first test fit! YAY! I just threw on an esav motor to see how it looked. Since I cant spend any more money I may just run it with the single brushed motor geared way down until the 2 of them burn out just for fun heh... Here are some pics, the drill press I had to use pretty much sucked, so the cuts arent exactly pretty...

Hmm, seems like the smallest pinion Im going to be able to use is probably a 17T due to the screws that are just underneath the motor... Cant bring the motor down far enough to use any smaller pinions. Hadnt forseen that when I made the motor mount... Right now I can get a good mesh with an 18t pinion on the brushed motor, with a brushless I think I could get 17t because they have no flux ring on the can and that will give me another millimeter or so to drop the motor.
