Re: Effective Drive Base

Madison's 8wd picture is looking pretty good...and similar to what we came up with when comparing 6 and 8 wd bots going over the bump.

You can get the CG way lower with 8wd than you can with a 4wd bot that clears the bumps. And playing with raised end wheels does neat things to steering ability.
