Re: pic: Pic 2: "caster wheel" crab drive combo
Very similar to some ideas that we had for setting up a crab drive or ackermann drive system.

did you try direct driving the wheels rather than using the chain? could save you some weight and be a little cleaner setup - not sure if you would have enough clearance for the caster setup though.

Other than that - I love it.
