Traction

Hey,

I’m on a team for the FTC challenge this season and my team and I are having a tough time figuring out what kind of wheels to track system to use. The challenge this season is drive up a ramp and over some bars to get to the top and then eventually hang by a bar at the top of the ramp. The problem we’re encountering is that the ramp gets pretty steep and its also slippery. We don’t know if we should use a track system like a tank or if wheels is what will be better to use. We need something with a lot of traction but yet it mauhgt have to be flexible.

Wheels have a tough time going over bars, so a track system would seem best. Perhaps tracks with custom perpendicular additions to pull the robot up the ladder?
