Re: pic: Bottom view of The Red Dragon

It's a little hard to tell, but are the middle two wheels lowered, similar to a wheelified version of SPAM's belt setup?

So, your team has no intention of climbing a ramp?

Why do you say that? Looks to me like there would be enough ground clearance to get up a shallow ramp.

Theres definitely not enough of an approach angle to warrant climbing even a 10 degree ramp. Perhaps if they removed some of the frame around the outside wheels.

I dunno about that. Sparky didn't have big wheels or massive ground clearance, but they were very reliable ramp climbers at VCU last year.

Re: pic: Bottom view of The Red Dragon

I think that we can go up a shallow ramp, though I am not 100% sure.
