This is the last in a series of Proto Types that use wheels at the toes. I
think I am ready to begin the fully robotic
version using black TECHNIC and
technology I developed while building the
Jamocklaquat.
Most of the other Quads I made use rounded balloon tyres at the toes.
This is good for allowing the lower section of the
legs to pivot.
I always liked the 49.6 x 28 VR tyres, and it seemed that the squared shape
of these wheels would make
for stable footing and provide a flat reliable
footprint.

I really like the colour scheme on this!
Do they tyres on the toes turn? I don’t think they do - but I can’t be certain
from the pics.
It would be interesting (but challenging) to combine wheeling and walking on a
robotic quad... it could wheel along the floor, then change to walking to
negotiate the stairs.
Cheers
