Re: Where to get Lunacy wheels

I wish I could post a better picture, but our photo album doesn't seem to want to work for me.
Great robot! We're torn between using omnis and Lunacy wheels. Omnis would make it easier to turn, but there's too little friction with the floor, also leaving us easily pushed. Plus, we'll have a little more grip on the bridge with Lunacy wheels.

I'm not putting down omnis, but I've heard that between the two, lunacy wheels are the better choice.
