GM2/3 Wheels!

WooHOO! We managed to get large, grippy wheels made for our GM2 & GM3 series of gearmotors! If you're familiar with the Parallax / MarkIII style Minisumo, these wheels might look familiar. The critical difference is that these wheels are keyed to fit the double-flat of our own gearmotors!
We're presently stocking the black and yellow wheels, with a pair of black rubber bands coming with each wheel. Oh, we're also stocking a quantity of the 'regular' servo wheels.
Our tests show that this combination kicks BUTT on, and that's without using the high-power RM2 upgrade motors!
Want a teaser? Here's a minisumo we built in-house to try them out!
