Really cool bot guys! Interesting four wheel design. If all goes well for both of us, we'll see you at district champs. Good luck!

Are you running tank drive? We have similar/same wheels and the voltage we are running drops significantly due to the resistance/dragging. Have you run into the same problem? Looks awesome and good luck at competition(s).

You guys always come up with a unique design and are always a force on the field We hope to team up with you at some point this year.

We look forward to seeing you on the field!!

Congratulations!!

That's a great looking robot with loads of functionality in a compact space! Congratulations. It looks like you're on your way to another great year. Hopefully our two teams will converge at PNW champs.

We ran into the same problem. To remedy it we ground off all the tread on the front wheels and then wrapped them in fiber strips that look similar to what casts are made of. It works really well and we achieve the same value of the pneumatic wheel while having the turning ability of an omni wheel.
