Re: Air in tires adding to weight?
#1 statement above is excellent... thinner lexan... 1/2 the thickness 1/2 the weight.
think about using rivets instead of screws and nuts... You would be surprised at how much weight you can save...
Of course you need to consider what strength you need and in areas where this is critical, rivets may not be a good choice as a direct replacement.
I would hazard a guess to say that EVERYTHING on your robot weights more than its own volume of air. If not it would float...in air.....
buoyant force...
of course this year is the first year we have to add weight to our robot .... low and to the front
