Matt,
How hard is it to fly the chopper? I have an electric trainer plane but I haven't flown it in about a year and a half.


Ian,
Our bot uses only 2 drill motors to drive it. The drill gearboxes are on low speed and the gearing from after the gearbox is 10/64. We have 10 inch diameter 3 inch wide wheels. We could pull more but our tires were slipping. The robot weighs exactly 130.0 lbs.

jon,
I quite often drop my cars on to the ground and drive them down the stairs. The suspension takes care of it all. However, I don't think I would drop it down the stairs.
