Re: Minibot climb rate
Late in the process we got a 1.7s minibot working with 1/4" tubes covered with surgical tubing. I never understood why everyone thinks magnets are necessary. If you center the minibot's mass left to right and balance the top to bottom mass difference by angling the minibot a bit, magnets are not necessary. Sure the minibot is not trying to climb straight up but it is also not trying to pull the magnets up with it - and its simpler.
