sometimes you just have to escape the wheel. for those of you who assume i come up with these things for first. I think i already know that alot of the things i come up with are not practical at all for first, thanks for the constant reminder.Tho first could present a game that a hoverbot would Be perfect for, They wont, but they could. the hoverbot only "hovers" a few thousands of an inch off the ground. just enough for it not to ,or to barley touch it and reduce friction with the "air cussion" (thin layer of moving air seprating the craft from the ground) it creates. iTs anphibous and Realy fast. thats prety much all it does. to "hover 10' in the air and hang you would need a mechanism witch created an "air Pillar" (plume of jet exaust projected downwards) or "Lift" (lifting force created by a wing using Brenuli's princpal). i just want you all to exersise that Muscle "hovering" between your ears with some out of the box ideas. in first theres, wheeles, treads witch use wheeles, omni-wheelws witch are just wheels with more wheels on them. and there was the B.E.A.S.T. crawling along with feet. Out of first unconventional locomotion is much more common and practical. like i wouldnt ride in a vehicle with treads from West Palm Beach, florida to say.. manchester, New hamshire. i would much rather ride in a vehicle with wings. theres a new idea for a mars robot that dosent even touch the surface, it deplous wings durring entry and flys in the martain atmosphere until it deplets its bateries, Woops... so it does eventually "land". and the Navy uses The L.C.A.C. Hovercraft transport to move tanks, trucks and things like that from ship to shore and beyond. So once and a while no matter how addicted you may be, try to think outside The 48'x24' box of first.
