Re: 4 vs 6 wheels
We think it adds some much of an advantage that we doubled it and going with an 8 wheel design! Unless compensated for, rigid 6 wheel designs tend to slam down when coming over the crest of the bump. We tested two of our past 6 wheel robots that were VERY solid, and wound up breaking a axle on one of them coming down the back side.
