Re: pic: Uber 3.0
This year, 2815 was geared around 14 on the CIMple Boxes. I think it's the fastest robot we've built in practice*, but we only went for it because we had a veteran driver who's been with us since our rookie year. If we had rookie drivers, I'd probably have adjusted the sprockets to make it closer to 12.
I'll ask another question: How are you planning to mount a manipulator onto this design? There are plenty of valid choices here (not a trick question, promise!).
*Granted, Lunacy and Breakaway weren't really known for their high-speed driving...
