Re: Tell me more about the regolith coating.
I can not post a video however it is a hard concept to imagine..we have regolith in one of our batroom walls...we moved the wheel across it and it seems the calculated friction the predicted is incorrect..with 130lb robots traveling at 10 mph with the coefficint of friction at .0021..it means u will drift 5-12 ft with a drastic turn...goodluck to anyone who can work around this issue...it is realy slippery...please try to practice this urself and then think of ideas...
