...interesting.
I wonder if it actually gets any air coming up the ramp and onto the top. It looks awful back heavy w/ huge back wheels! I bet the wings and stuff fall off during competition.
Its cool though.
Our robot has arms that can flap up and down like wings. But they are just aluminum box beams, no special feathers or anything.

Those wheels are actually extremely light, under 3 lbs a piece with the sprockets attached.

Anyway, we've got some video to go along with the pictures...

lol... looks like it's gonna run right up the ramp and smack into the wall in the first picture. Great way to test durability.


Other than that, looks like a great design. I wanna see how INS works...
