Oh, I think you misinterpreted me. The original idea of the thread, posted by Don Rotolo, with fans propelling the robot horizontally, sounds completely in the spirit of the rules. The idea of using fans in the vertical direction to increase traction sounds against the spirit of the rules. I think we really do agree.
