We have a tank drive train that can be switched around with the actuation of casters via pneumatic piston. (There's one to include!) So we have a 4X4 function and a 2X4 function. The 4X4 situates the robot on all 4 motorized wheels including treading. The 2X4 function situates us on casters in the front and two motorized treaded wheels in the back to optimize turning capabilities. It's quite impressive!
