Re: Friction Puzzle

One set of CoF numbers for the wheels seems to suggest that it would not.

However, AndyMark only has a single listing for CoF on their website which would suggest that the inline and transverse may be the same.

At least one team has already come to a similar conclusion with an empirical test.

In this case there is a slight chance your robot will drive (the strict math says it won't be able to start). Even if it does drive, it should drive very slowly.

The one way I see that you could accomplish this would be to "deploy" the sideways pair of wheels using pneumatics when you decide to use them.
