Trata II is a small prototype of a remote controlled robot with snow-surfing capabilities. Frits Lyneborg said that his project is still currently in its infancy and that we should soon see his prototype in a more complete video. For now, here are the beginnings of the snowboarder. The Trata 2 works like a hovercraft with a propeller motor that mobilizes the mini-vehicle, and a servo motor that acts on the motor and the direction of the robot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wU5Crv3xvE8
