Whoops, couldnt see that from the picture. BTW, that video is awesome! What made you choose to only go for the second rack, though? Is it weight (like us) or strategy? (I can pretend that our choice was strategy too XD)

How fast does your minibot deploy/climb?

Amazing gripper though.

By watching us at the rally, one would get the impression that we couldn't score at all in spite of a neat-looking arm...

We had a poorly installed encoder that had gotten scratched (a lot!), and once fixed worked fine... But it took us a good while to hunt down exactly what the problem was.

Anywho, there has got to be a better way to close loops that those incredibly unreliable rotary encoders! Even the one we got preinstalled on our supershifter didn't work!
