Re: pic: Full robot, half way through the season - back view

Yes, we're using the C-base, and the center wheel is dropped. We used this same wheel setup in 2007 (highest seeded rookie award) and 2008 (regional finalists) successfully, and have never used traction wheels for any of our robots... I don't even know if it occurred to the students. Regardless, I've made sure your suggestions were passed on to them so they can compare the pro's and con's of the current setup versus traction wheels. We'll see what they decide!
