Ok, so I did some calculating and ended up with about 2.25 (rounding up a bit) lbs force per foot for the torque needed to climb a slope of 35 degrees and a height of about 5.73 ft given it's hypotenuse is 10 ft. I also took into account the 50 percent EF when calculating the power. Do these...

Thank you! I guess there really isn't one set slope that I want the rover to climb. I want it to be able to move around in different environments, but let's just say the maximum slope it would try to climb would be about 35 degrees. thanks again

Hi everyone, I plan on getting a deeper understanding of this soon, but for the time being I'm just looking for a quick answer so I can order the parts needed. I'm building a rover that in total (including all parts) will weigh about 15-18 lbs. It has six equally spaced legs, each...
