Re: Team 423 Presents
Looks simple indeed (but effective). Has the low speed of the drivetrain affected you at all?
I like the multipurpose intake and ball holding. Can't wait to see a climber on it. |

I also can't wait for our climber to be ready. Hopefully it will be done in time to attach at our first competition. |
