Re: Honeycomb Composites?
Yes. Team 1836's 2008 robot (one of the small sprinters) was made largely of honeycomb aluminum and spacers. It was really light and incredibly fast until we lost control and hit a wall. The devastating crash required the robot to undergo design changes and rebuilding. Team 1515 used it as a trackball guide (if I remember correctly) on their 2008 robot. I don't have pictures, but it is completely bent out of shape.
