Coach on team #419, Rambots, from UMass Boston / BC High and NASA, Mathsoft, Solidworks.



given the assumption that there is enough torque, can a robot with a 4 wheel drive train, using the 8" wheelchair wheels, pull a goal up a bridge? or will the wheels slip?

will mere adding of traction on wheels make the difference ?

also, what is the ideal weight of a robot that needs to pull an 80lbs goal? i imagine 70+ ?
