Re: Big Minibots

What I am beginning to see here is diversity not only in minibot size preference, but also in reasoning. Some people decided on small minibots for simplicity or reliability, and some people chose larger minibots for the same reasons. The motives might have been budget, durability, speed, or "because this is what we know how to do," but it doesn't really matter all that much in the end. Teams are settling into their comfort zones. Teams chose to build their minibots as big or as small as they are because that is what the individual team has found to work best for them. It fits their unique needs and priorities of the team most effectively for the resources and know how available. That is the answer to the OP's question.

Quod erat faciendummaybe...
