    Sorry I had to go back after being confronted with advertising for shampoo. So I have no idea what you want to talk about.

    For sure there are implementations of the new "football with head" Star Wars robot. Have been even before the movie was released. Check Youtube.

    No idea if any of those involved a Propeller though. Probably not.

    Sorry about the advertising spam...I posted the link because I thought it covered a novel method of controlling the robot

    As for the "football with head" robots...I would think the mechanical configuration would be of interest for locomotion over difficult terrain
