Re: 2349's drive

Thanks, modeling update coming soon.

It's all because of our hurdling design... I guess I'll just have to say, "you'll see"!

Re: 2349's drive

We were worried about tipping as well, as we initially thought of a lifting device closer to the front of the robot.

Then we fully inflated the ball and realized that wouldn't work very well.

Cam: did we decide on the traction wheels being in the front or in the back? I remember you saying in front not too long ago, because that way we can drive in the event that we tilt up just a little bit.

The traction wheels are the front -- the battery & electronics will go on the back to balance out the weight of lifting the ball. That way, we can always maintain driving wheel contact, yeah.
