Now that I've heard the story behind it, I am even more impressed. Well done bro, well done.

Are you still kicking around the idea of adding some provision to score an ubertube?
Priority is as follows: get it driving and blocking > minibot stuffs > ubertube scoring. Minibot deployment/control system might stay with us for the weight allowance.

@Chris, we will avoid having our alliance block the field during gameplay, as I agree with update 10 that it would make the game very boring. The wheels will not be chained 1) due to complexity in chain path and 2) we'll only be driving side to side with the wings down. Wings will be folded up before we turn the bot.

Did I mention that the mentors (JJ (Boeing), John (Boeing), David (Lockheed), and Agata (UPenn)) are awesome? They have so much fun with FRC. Everything outside the kit has so far been paid for by JJ's credit card. We NEED to fundraise and fast!
