Re: Angel Wings

I like these bad boys! Do you still trust your daughters on them? If so, I'd think robots will do just fine.

Question. what if my wheels get stuck in the holes?

Most wheels will not get stuck in the holes. If you have casters they may run a chance of getting stuck. In which case i don't know what to say. But we designed this so most robots can get on our wings and have plenty of traction to stay on the wings. Of course there are always design flaws... and i guess that could be considered one. But honestly your robot wheel is going to have to be awfully small to get caught in one of those.

If you are in Newton, Just roll up onto 1885's. Nice and flat and wide, with no holes to stub your toe upon. ;-)

If you get stuck, you have no chance of falling off, now do you? Even if you aren't fully on you can still be lifted. :cool:

Re: Angel Wings

I really like this robot, I think you guys will make friends easily in Archimedes. This robot is on my check list (close to the top too)

I also think you need some Hot Sauce for your Wings. Some rings would probably suit very nicely on the side.
