Interesting Pinz Videos

Post by totaljoint »

Interesting videos on YouTube:

How can a 718 get stuck with 4 out of 6 wheels on dry pavement?
Rather embarrassing public display of 718 stuckness:

Don't underestimate what steering can do when stuck; crank the wheel over to one side and try forward and back, then crank over to the other side. Just a little sideways motion will force one rear wheel forward and one back and this can make the difference between being stuck and making out like a pro.
