Bane bot wheels

[ady]

How are people fitting bane bot wheels to drill motors?
I need a 125mm wheel and i don't think robochallenge do them

Using these beasties myself:

Ok I see. And then I can attach a 20mm wide wheel to that hub?

[Anttazz]

Yeah, thats what mine's are

[ady]

Great cheers mate

Got these hubs today but they don't fit on drills. I thought I would have to perhaps grind a flat spot on drill shaft slide these on ad tighten them up, but the centre hole on hub is way bigger than a drill motor shaft.

I believe it is designed to go on the shoulder of the motor shaft (before the threaded bit), which is about 12mm. Gimson motors have more shaft exposed so it's easier to do this, but I'd have thought there would still be space to attach in this way on the exposed bit of 12mm shaft on a typical drill output.

The hubs are designed specifically for the GR02's. If you are using anything else I don't think they will fit. I am getting the impression that you are using drills... "Got these hubs today but they don't fit on drills." If this is the case then I cant see what you can do.

yeah drills, my orginal question was how to fit banebots wheels to DRILLS!
Gonna send these back, their no use for this application.
Lost £6 oh well

Does it not if on the larger diameter part of the shaft (before the shoulder), I am certin that part is 12mm on all my drills.

[Ellis]

Exactly^, please try before sending them back, if they're regular drills they should work and actually quite nicely...

[Eventorizon]

Get up some photos if you can as that will help to give us all context. Makes it easier to figure out a solution!

[ady]

Thanks for advice guys, their barely fit on half that part of shaft u mention. It has robochallenge mounts aswell. I must say though they are a nice quality and arrived quick

[Ellis]

Keep them. No benefit in not doing so. They will be useful later on, without doubt. Understandable that they won't work with the RC mounts, but see if they work without, as in the future it's likely you'll mount a drill in your own fashion and these things will become useful.
