Now that I think about it the swamp things had an interesting setup. they had 6wd that had the outer wheels co-linear and the center wheels further apart. I would appreciate it if someone could tell us about how this design worked. Were the center wheels lowered? What is the traction benefit from this design?
could i ask what size/kind/tread wheel you used, and what your gearing was? one motor or 2 per side?
