Tetrix sells "continuous rotation servos" so.. yeah.

This is what i get for completely ignoring FTC,

actually in update 3, they linked the allowed "tetrix" parts to this link
http://www.tetrixrobotics.com/Buildi....aspx?moid=533

and that only links the "180 deg" servo, so..not sure

Our notional minibot design has gone from a launched PVC tube...to a couple of motors, a battery, and a couple wheels...to 15lbs of servos (assuming continuous rotation servos are allowed and can contribute to upwards motion per <G19>).

Why do I have a feeling that this isn't the last time the minibot rules will be revisited :D

I'm willing to bet that adding continuous rotation servos would have a net negative effect on the speed of the robot at some point, factoring in battery draw and weight...
