In order to verify the behavior of the climber by the hybrid drive method, the climber with opposite and cross rollers with the same geometric and drive mechanism was manufactured, and their operating characteristics was compared. It was estimated that the action of the pressing friction force and the transmission friction force differs depending on the roller method, the starting current was higher in the cross roller type, and the contribution of the transmission friction force was large. The Space Elevator Challenge 2021 was participated in to confirm the climber's performance. In this report, the results of climber operation experiments and its challenge state were explained.
