(...) well, between the time i made the post and now i created a quick 4 motor 4 wheel design and to my surprise it worked. the A B steering is acceptable. there is some skitter, but not too bad. Thanks, I'll try putting distance between the motors (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) The sumo 'bot I made for Guelph originally had 4 motors/4 wheels. the problem is I joined the geartrain for each side together, so the one wheel was geared directly to the other wheel on one side of the 'bot. This caused more binding when the (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Rob, that was a wonderful design and I'm currently implementing some of your ideas in my next stacker. So the focus... hmmm... I go for the challenge and whether there's 5 people or 5 thousand, to me it doesn't matter. I find the people who (...) (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Hmmm... I can see both sides to this dilemma. Similar to Iain, I am no fan of pressure. When you spend as many agonizing hours over your robot as you do, it becomes a big attachment. You surely don't want it to disapppoint. After the last (...) (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I like the many ideas thrown around here. The line tracking idea is very appealing to me. Trying to get a 'bot to follow a zigzag line as quick as possible is challenging. The issues: how big can you make the 'bot and if you can only use parts (...) (24 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) You know, I'd rather it stay reasonably small at around 100 people or less. The largest we've had is 70+ and that's already a litle large. I like it when people can go up to Jin or Rob and ask them how their robot works, and that those folks (...) (24 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
