Re: Coolest Drive Train
Why, that idea is positively screwy!
(sorry, couldn't resist the pun)
That is an interesting way to do it. I'd imagine that it works well for a 2-3 lb. R/C car, although I understand the military not being able to make it happen for a full-sized vehicle. Some stuff doesn't scale well.
Whether screw drive would scale well to a 130 lb. robot would have to be seen on the field.
