 Don’t choose to aim for the stars because they mark the peak of our abilities, don’t choose to aim for the stars because it is easy, choose to aim for the stars because it shows the depth of our potential; choose to aim for the stars because it is hard! - Ken Leung [more] |

Re: pic: What else has Billfred been doing?
one awesome thing about these kinds of drives is that they can have increased maneuverability without having to build a complex swerve drive system (having motors to rotate the wheels. You can spin very easily and many teams use a 4 wheel configuration of this idea. I know we did, and about 5 or 6 or the Waterloo teams did too.
I think This is 229's version with wheels at the corners. Billfreds is simpler i think, but it may need casters or whatnot. I think this is a solid design by the way.
