So Surgical Tubing... There seems to be a lego model in the back...

Re: pic: RoboLancers 321 Teaser

Curious if you have tested this chassis on a hump? 1745 found that with six inch wheels that the front of the frame hit the bump on the way up and then the rear frame dragged after you pushed the front wheels up the ramp leaving the rear wheels to lose contact with the carpet. It looks like you have 8 inch wheels so this may not be an issue but, if you can test this on a hump.::safety::

Ramp testing has happened, as well as cad models before the assembly. At an estimated 8.31fps, we should be fine climbing, shooting, tunneling, and hanging. ;)

IFI = <3

Another fun fact: there is no center wheel drop... how might we be getting around this? :cool:
