Eight builds spanning Baja SAE drivetrain and braking components, a manufacturing-class press, and side explorations in transmission design.

Redesigned the 4WD power-transfer system from chain drive to prop shaft, built around a 90° bevel-gear reduction gearbox and a COTS overrunning differential.

Redesigned wheel hubs from two-piece to single-piece 7075-T6 and developed an in-house CNC broaching process for internal splines.
View project →Developed a custom dog clutch to shift between 2WD and 4WD, eliminating the need to remove the chain between events.
View project →Designed a lightweight, CNC-machined brake pedal optimized using a brake force calculator and SAE braking requirements.
View project →Collaborated on a class project to design and build a compact hydraulic press using a Harbor Freight bottle jack.
View project →Redesigned the team's gearbox to shorten the rear subframe and achieve top-30 acceleration performance at Baja SAE Williamsport.
View project →Designed and built a scalable thrust stand to measure and characterize plasma thruster performance, with modular mounting for testing flexibility.
View project →Explored a constant-mesh sequential transmission concept as an alternative to a CVT.
