Finally someone with proper test equipment! Cast silicone and urethane wheels.

Well done and we run the "Hound Wheel".I call them the Junk Yard Special. Love your testing! Thank You.

This is like Project Farm for robot folks! Awesome work!

I knew there was a reason I subscribed to you. FANTASTIC video right there. Thanks!

interesting you don't have any rc wheels there. i thought these would be the no.1 resource. There is even sticky sauce for them.

Hi, I stumbled across your Hound videos a while back and was really impressed by some of the design features, and this project is also really cool! I've been trying to find and create more data about combat robot component performance, including traction, but your load cell implementation looks much more accurate than my prototype traction testing setup (using an analog force gauge). Did you make the load cell yourself or pull it out of something? I'd be really interested in the grip of wheels with molded Vytaflex tread and also molded silicone sealant tread. Another aspect that is really important but also extremely difficult to quantify is how the different tires perform after picking up dust or other debris. Perhaps you could roll a wheel through some "standard dust" before a test? Or alternatively, "prep" a wheel with isopropyl alcohol or another compound? If you are interested, I have some Vytaflex 40A wheels and the ability to make some 30A parts to send to you to keep for testing purposes.

I know they are heavier but I wanna know if skate or scooter wheels are good options

Another excellent video. You desperately need P R O M O S M!
