Re: Minibot wheel slip
[quote=would irritating the rubber tires with some kind of fluid to give it some traction? i think my tires are the major factor in my problem[/QUOTE]
Are you using the stock FTC 3 or 4 inch wheel?
All we did was to radius them to match the radius of the pole (see above post) and use the sand paper trick and we are getting 2.5 second climb rates consistently with 2 motors powering one wheel and magnets holding the whole thing on the pole.
Before using any type of fluid, I would check the legality of such use in the Manual first.
