OOOOO...
I see a resemblence to 2005's drive system with the colson caster wheels. Awesome looking manipulator 121, you guys will certainly be another force to be reckoned with this year.

Beautiful. Do those move like treads or are they just rubber bands?

Cool idea! Either way, [treads or rubber bands] I think will work very well.

Do all of the elastic bands run off of a motor? (Do they all move?)

ya to detail it... there is 1 window motor running top 1 for bottom.

the orange is the drive "chain"

the green are the "control cords"
