Re: Be afraid... Be VERY Afraid
These threads are interesting -- and we don't see many of them around anymore, unfortunately -- because they document someone's effort to make a better mousetrap. What becomes clear as the discussion progresses is that there are still lots of folks that still have a lot to learn about the forces at work and considerations we face while making decisions about how a mechanism will work. I might've appreciated this a bit more if there were not 6+ pages of attention-seeking.
As shown, this almost absolutely will not work. It appears to offer no advantage over swerve drive but has several disadvantages that swerve does not suffer. I'd like to see some math justifying ANY of the claims y'all have made re: friction, pneumatic cylinder size, etc.
