• we tried to reduce the modular plates 1. to save space and 2. to save material

so here's the versions of the modular plates (green first version, triple last version)

• the last version is thinner and have 3 steps for more adjustments
• we noticed that attaching the steps with some bolts will make some studs-like bumps that is kinda good for soft terrains.

• We made a first concept of the stabilizer foot, based on a double pivot used for some mops;

my intention was to create a double axis adjustment on the terrain.

• Gary said me the piece was too difficult to machine, so I leave this first model as an "idea" for future modifications

• example of foot's movement (maybe it lose some strength with all this inclination)

• we thought also about a modular plate to increase surface if needed, for example on sand or other soft grounds.
• the plate can be disassembled to reduce occupied space and for applying more force if needed on solid grounds.
