Re: Frictional Discrepancies

One thing that my team found out is that if u wear down the wheels, you get better traction. With having a rough tire, it will give more of a stick to the flooring material. We tried it on one of our past robots and it worked really good. Just run the wheels on asphalt and run it down a bit. Its not against the rules at all.
