Looks cool.

I'm really interested in a video.

Ill see what I can do for a vid in a few weeks..
I will have to talk to ryhton about it.
He is a very busy man. Or I will have to go buy a dvd cam!eather way I will get a vid of the first run.In a couple of weeks.
 
My question is, Is it self righting if it leans over too much? I'd sure like to see it run. OH, if your video cam has a video out port (usb or firewire) you can plug it in to your laptop. Double check first.
 
There is a two wire loops that go in to both sids of the chassie.So if it leans to far over it will hit them.
As far as self righting I have no clue!
But I think if it goes that far over you could gas it and it whould stand up?
