Systems and methods for dynamically magnetizing a chassis of a robotic vehicle are provided. The system can include a chassis having a fixed first section with a first magnet, and a moveable a second section having a second magnet with an opposition orientation relative to the first magnet. The second section is located above or below the first section and includes a mechanism that moves the second section relative to the first magnet. The system also includes an actuator connected to the second section, and a control system operatively connected to the actuator. In the systems and methods, the control system can send commands to the actuator to selectively move the mechanism, thereby moving the second section relative to the location of the first magnet to activate or inactivate a magnetic force on a portion of the chassis.
