− | * | + | * Using this summer's test chassis, we ran some climbing tests. No trouble with the low section and climbing the 30 deg ramp. The robot's 4" front wheels were able to get over the lowest two 1/2" hex horizontal bars, but after this the bottom of the chassis frame's contact with the lowest horizontal bar prevented the rear wheel from achieving contact with the ramp. Conclusion is that more ground clearance is needed to climb the mid portion of the mountain using wheels. |
