They're coming very soon. Just some finishing touches being applied. :)

if you made the wheels overlap, you could do 4 wheels. I once read of a 2004 bot doing that with wheelchair wheels.

Not going to lie, although I have seen some amazing customs chassis, I will always be a strong fan of the Kit Chassis from last year. It was very quick, nimble, and still had descent maneuverability.

Our team the past few years have used modified versions of the kit chassis. It's always a great starting base as everything is already properly cut, and in just 1 nights work you can have it up and running. From there we typically adjust it to work with what ever particular wheels we plan on using that year.

Very excited to see what the Kit Chassis is going to be this year.

Hey Karthik,

Any word on how this is coming along? I've been exploring the Kitbot-on-Steroids concept after having recommended it to teams here on your team's advice and am curious to see how close my version is to the "real thing" :)

From what I've seen from their tweets, it looks like 1114 will have another announcement to the CD community pretty soon. :)

Sorry about the delay, we wanted to release the iOS App and the Kitbot on Steroids resources at the same time. It took a bit longer than expected for Apple to approve the App. Alas, it is now available for all. :)
