 If it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck could be a very clever animatronics display created by Disney Imagineers.... Sometimes it is just a duck. - IKE [more] |

Re: Propulsion that does not involve driving wheels
Interesting idea...
Big fans.. Maybe. Depends on the coating and the weight of the robot. Seems conviecable but you'l have to work out the number of wheels (do we have to use wheels are can we use like little bearing things?) for the least friction... Why a big fan though? By not build a series of duct fans like on the Big RC Jets? Build a nice fat one or custom make a few by gearings the motor out and making it run 2-3 duct fans. That way you could direct the fans. You could either go for downforce or for power.... |
