Re: pic: 3729's minibot

2826 uses cantilevered shafts similar to this made from 1/4-20 grade 2 bolts arbor pressed onto the motor shaft. We were really worried about this being an issue at fist, so we built 3 bots. Since, we have had at least 75 successful deploys with this design in practice and we just won the Wisconsin regional (thanks 111 and 2702) where we deployed successfully 12 of 16 matches and probably could go at least through St Louis with the same minibot.
