Re: Sheet Metal, 8-Wheel Drive Design

Also that method of braking is OK, and worked decently well with 1477's robot because they used pneumatic tires which had give. Colsons have nowhere near as much give so you will most like not have much braking force at all. Look into a different method for braking, something similar to what 25 has done in years past.
