New Strategy!!!!!!" as he rallied the troops for our Finals push. - Travis Hoffman [more]

Re: pic: Twin Fan Powered Vex Prototype#2

As for steering, a servo controlled flap behind the fans, and putting an omni wheel on the front wheel would make steering like a boat possible.

For braking, a servo with a piece of rubber on the arm pressing onto a main axel, so once you disable the fans, the servo acts as a brake.
