DLuders Posted November 22, 2012 On his LEGOstudio Model Gallery, ISOGAWAYoshihito posted his cool Lego Technic OMNI WHEEL CRAB with several detailed pictures so you could possibly make your own: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philo Posted November 22, 2012 Cute and clever, as usual... I wonder how it is controlled, omniwheel vehicles are not easy to control with a 4 sticks remote... Maybe a NXT + IR-link? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The of aeh5040's "Lobster" Lego Technic Mecanum Wheel Car shows how one can use two Power Functions remotes. His Lobster Building Instructions show those remotes too: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philo Posted November 22, 2012 Agreed, but aeh5040's includes a bunch of differentials to make control easy, something that doesn't exist (as far as I can see) in Isogawa's crab. Controlling each wheel separately is tricky (but then I tend to be all thumbs ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
