Hi guys, I found your guy's group on google and would very much appreciate your expertise in tank tracks for robots. I am building a system that requires two tank tracks to hold 300lbs while going down stairs. I just wanted to ask which type of DIY tank tracks you guys think would best fit this situation? I have a budget of $400 dollars and can afford a customized track. Additionally this is for a senior design project and I am just doing reseach on the indivial parts. There doesn't seem to be much info on the load capacity these tracks can hold. Here is the link i found on the different types: http://www.rctankcombat.com/articles/track-systems/
