Question. what if my wheels get stuck in the holes?
Most wheels will not get stuck in the holes. If you have casters they may run a chance of getting stuck. In which case i don't know what to say. But we designed this so most robots can get on our wings and have plenty of traction to stay on the wings. Of course there are always design flaws... and i guess that could be considered one. But honestly your robot wheel is going to have to be awfully small to get caught in one of those.
