Stair Rover
Three designs for a small robot that climbs stairs, on staircases you can change: straight, with landings, with winders, spiral. Choose a design and let it run. The one-step lifter is worked out down to the printable parts; the other two are concepts with dimensions, parts and weights. Nothing has been built yet.

The three side by side
Share of simulated runs that got up and down again without an accident, on steps 140 to 200 mm high and 220 to 310 mm deep. The simulations differ in kind (see the note under each design), so read this as a first sorting, not a measurement.
