A true champion in the making.

I think there should also be center wheels driven by ball differentials. Oh, and those should be on swerve modules too.

I tried to make it obvious, but apparently I didn't try quite hard enough.

OK, so it's someone else not playing along.

Hey, uh, Wave? How 'bout you guys try using 8 of those wheels, mounted in pairs? That should really get you over the obstacles, and it's a proven system.

Think of the extra torque and traction! Hopefully we will have something ready for premiere night!

You guys are flat out harsh (yes I was rolling and can barely read any longer through watery eyes)...I was only going to say...Man, that thing had legs and it walked, when it starred back in the day in Star Wars; The Return Of The Jedi!....And simply leave it at that.

I do want to see it on Rough Terrain though. (Especially with no Ewoks around).

Makeynum wheels look like da purfect choice for dis game.

One cristizimsn those wheels are not big enough. To get over the obstacles you want at least 80" wheels. I Hurd u can buy them at your Lokal tractor store.

Great robot tho excited to see you guys. Mb you will get to world's. And one day if you keep tryin you can go to Einstein.

Yowza Sam...Carefool dere foo. Da Chezy Boyz are gonna get mihty upsets u steelin ' demz langwage and insertz it ina da twoknightz funny tread.

I looked up these wheels and the first listing has them for $5,000 a piece. 8 wheels for 2 bots makes $40,000... have fun with that budget... haha.

Only bad teams make things themselfs. Don't you know you can just buy robot kits?? Top power teams don't waste time, they just spend $$$!

All the top teams are driving their many-sided wheels directly from CIMs. All the power, all the speed, no drawbacks.
Also, I appreciate your forward thinking in that makenim rollers may be used as flotation devices.

Edit: Andy Baker called, looks like he has to do a complete redesign of his robot now that you've gone public with this.

Buy the kit but say you made it on the BOM. Much easier.
