Re: Poll: Wide or Narrow Chassis?

I think in terms of trade-offs:

Wide gives you a wider acquirer, but it makes it harder to stay upright when you navigate the obstacles.

Narrow limits the acquirer but gives you better balance.

With only 18 balls max on the field, and a three-ball limit, I think the importance of a wide acquirer will be lessened. I doubt teams will have many opportunities to pick up more than one ball at a time.

Answer? Narrow robot.
