I think we're using the same winches... ;)

Are you purposefully climbing slowly? What motor(s) are you using on your climbing mechanism, and what reductions are you going through? I love your design, and the 20 point climb is a great addition to any alliance, however I think you can probably do it in half the time it took you.

That ability alone will make you guys a player at NY. Even in such a massive field I think you guys make eliminations this year, good to see 1396 taking big steps forward.

Before we bagged it, I believe our final time was 30 seconds, which leaves room for some defense. There is only one motor on our winch which is a BaneBot Motor on a relay.
