Wheel guards!
I added new wheel guards to Ace of Sharks (don’t mind the bright red, it’s just a test with random filament) and tested a bunch of wheel combos.
The wheel guard print worked the first time (!), and seems ready. In the Duramic PLA+ filament, Ace of Sharks should be underweight and ready for a possible tournament next week!
I tried rubber cement coated wheels to try to improve traction, and it worked really well. I also added rubber bands wrapped around the rubber cement, and that improves traction as well. That is probably what I will do in the tournament, and we will see how it works in a fight. Rubber cement does pick up dust, but a damp cloth will wipe it off and not significantly reduce stickiness. (I forgot to lapse the testing and chassis swap during the Stardance huddle, oops… )
