Got up in the middle of the night, moved the slip-clutch to a different position in the drive train (now attached directly to the motor shaft, in fact). Get much better results -- can drive across carpet without breaking a sweat. Should have thought (...) (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.build)

(...) The two motors drivetrain (coupled through a differential) that others suggested is a very practical and effective solution.

(...) The last Town JR construction set (6565) had a six-wide railing used as the sides of one of the cheesy (did I say that?) trucks. I didn't see it in the LDraw parts list, but I thought I saw it on one of the other cad programs. Of course, I (...) (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)
