Wow...that is really awesome.

Good to see the rivets are back! And I love the battery placement.

Incredible product, once again! I, too, am glad to see that the rivets are back - you guys really do a fantastic job of building a robot that transcends the bounds of form and function :)

The two front Omni Wheels are non driven.
The back four are all driven. Of the two pair, in back, the two front ones only make contact on the ramp. They have a single strip on conveyor material on them so we get more weight on wheels. They are also 1/4 of an inch off the floor when on flat ground.
The trannies are a two speed configuration we had last year. They are shift on the fly.
The gold trough sticking out the front is for practicing shooting. We will have a chute to bring the ball from the magazine to the shooting wheels.
We are using two large Cim's for the shooter. We can get the correct distance with only one Cim if we have too.

The robots name is 'Scorpion'

Fitting name.

It looks great. I like the gold parts especially. Looks intimidating.

It might be because of last year's robot.

Cause we did the same thing this year. Used Monocoque construction. It's 0.40 thick Gold Plated Aluminum. There is no "frame" per say, just channels. Like how an airplane fuselage is made.

We buy it from Sherman Racing. He is a race car body guy.

We got it for $75.00 for a 4 x 10 sheet.

I like how the ball collector looks like a magazine on a gun (even curved so the balls dispense faster). Very aesthetic. Make sure you polish it before competition!
