Re: WEEK 1

I learned that when you go into Week 1 at 119.8 lb, you can't add new stuff without taking something off. Hmmm. Software upgrades work. 1's and 0's are light.

A few of the things that would be useful on the robot:
- A good way to see under the far side of the bridge.
- A good way to clear balls from under bridges.
- A good way to tip the bridge to your side without any of the balls going under the bridge.
- A good way to tip the bridge for somebody else without blocking their path or having to lead them over the bridge.
- A better way to keep balls from getting rolled under the chassis.
- Shooter wheels that aren't affected so much by ball variation.
