VEX Wheelbase

for our drivetrain how do we do a wheelbase since we have 3 wheels and they arent even in between

Uhhhhhh…
Elaborate please? (Like what size wheels do you have, and do you have 3 wheels in total or 3 per side?)

Unless you’re doing a kiwi drive (which I do not recommend at all, they are notoriously hard to build and are very underpowered), you have to have at least 4 wheels (preferably 2 pairs of wheels of the same size like 4-4 & 3.25-3.25) to make a drivebase.

we have 3.25" wheels and 3 per side and we arent doing a kiwi drive

I have no real clue of what your asking but it seems like you dont know how to gear the wheels together and stuff. so take a look at this thread or word your questions diffrently

like are you saying that you only have three wheels.

or when you say

does that mean 6 wheels? please give more context.
I mean there are a bunch of sources online such as YouTube for drive base tutorials. search up 9motorgang

no im talking about this

this should answer it then. take you ruler and get to measuring. wheel base and trackwidth have no relation to the middle wheels only the farthest outside ones.

Not always, depends on how the wheels are driven and what type they are. See this and earlier posts in this topic.
