    1) use as a new launch control method.
    2) add nylon bushings so the electromagnetics can pivot slightly for better contact on non-flat surfaces.

    LeDrib, no worries about breaking the magnet. There aren’t any.. it’s an electromagnet😆. The thinner the material you’re sticking it to, the less ferromagnetic saturation there will be, and vice versa. If you reverse the polarization on the electromagnet when you want to release, it’ll reverse the saturation and allow you to become unstuck easier. Only necessary if it’s not releasing though😎 awesome idea!
