That is a funny idea.

Is it just me, or does it seem to not steer very well? 

I went for Spike Prime instead of waiting for this set. I wonder how a Yellow-Black-Magenta robot would do in the competition.

[Coder Shah]

@Munchkin255 You're right, the steering angle is limited by the arm linkage. If I removed the arm linkage I can increase the steering angle but I like the arm linkage :P

Spike Prime is great! However do note that the LEGO Ideas competition is only limited to entries using either the 51515 Robot Inventor set or the 31313 EV3 set.

Very nice creation, again. That 5x5 matrix allows for such an easy way to make you go "ahhhw tha's cute"

Hi @Jim, thanks! Yeah I'm really liking the 5x5 matrix too.
