Re: Moving Battery
this concept of moving the battery to aid balance came up during a brainstorm for our team too. other than the legality of the issue, with a 120lb robot and a 12lb battery, through simple physics, the battery would have to move 10x inches as far to get the same change as the robot moving x inches.
move the robot 1 inch or the battery 10 inches? its a question of how fine the drive train's movements are and how fine you need to balance your robot.
EDIT: this is assuming most bots are going to have similar weights.
