Re: Be afraid... Be VERY Afraid

In 2004, HOT (67) had a very similar system where they had two wheels on each side of the robot that were powered by the same motor. Each wheel was actuated downward to touch the ground. This allowed them to change speed/torque ratios.

Notice the two different size black treaded wheels on the right side of the robot in the picture below.
