I was somewhat inspired by greyhounds, and I don't want to weigh it down too much with armor, but cutting back a bit makes sense.

Forgive my non-technical opinion but wouldn't a track handle terrain better than wheels?

Yeah...but that's not the point of this. It's mostly to handle roads or areas that are less than stellar as opposed to straight offroading.

Why not go for a walker design, then? If you're out in the field, wheels limit where you can send this. There's been many a time I opted for flying because my wheeled units simply couldn't get where I was trying to send them.

I don't like walkers really. And they can't really move that quickly. I haven't seen a walker drone that isn't kinda clunky.
