| This robot vehicle is fast and
very maneuverable. The drive wheels are geared up with a 1:3
ratio for significantly more speed than a direct-drive robot,
and the wheels are located in the center of the robot with the
robot's weight balanced almost 100% over them. This allows for
very tight turns and even fast spinning in place.
Drive it with one of the two remote control
programs, or try the autonomous program, which makes it drive
around the room like crazy, trying to avoid walls with its
distance sensor.
For a normal speed version of this layout
(without the gears) check out the
Center Drive
Platform. |
