Very nice utilitarian robot. What control system are you going to use for it?

For us, we're just using last year's robot, unmodified, to tow around the trailer; she still works, so hey, why not, right?

I was thinking we could use Jake to tug the trailer around.



Jake's our FTC robot, by the way, not a minion.
