Weight without battery, is about 110lbs.
The 4WD generally works well, there is a problem of a lack of traction in the back wheels, as you can still in the video. But we will try out some tread-ed wheels. We would have gone 6 wheel, with the dropped center, but the supports for the tower/cylinder conflicted with the placement of the 6th wheel.

We would love to go, but for us that would mean a 6 hour drive... However we will be at BATB. on the 15th.

Six hour drive? We have a 6 hour flight out there. Totally worth it.

Agreed. The Fall Classic, CalGames and Battle at the Border are nice events, but this event in Fresno is somehow ridiculously more competitive. It might be one of the most competitive events this offseason across the entire country (excluding IRI obviously).

Sounds like a great event..
Just the logistics for us didn't work out.
Maybe next year~

If you ask you shall receive: few photos of our lift mechanism.
Which is pretty much 2 sheets of melamine in metal sliders, lifted by a belt attached to a 24x2inch pneumatic cylinder.







And something we got a lot of comments about, our air storage tank.



We will be at BATB this weekend, hope you see some of you there.

how heavy is that tank?

The tank is a bit heavy, about 15lbs. However it was the quickest thing we could acquire and we had the space for it.
