(...) Those wheels would also be good choices, and they may be better choices than the ones from 8466. However I don't think the wheels from 8466 are TOO heavy.

Wow, that sounds like a nice bit of building there. And while sick to boot! My creations while sick usually don't come out so well because I find it hard to concentrate and build good, solid, well thought out structures. I'll admit to not having (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)
