Re: pic: FRC971 Spartan Robotics Presents: Renegade

That is such a clean and beautiful design. You folks always inspire me with your sheetmetal work, and this is no different.

A couple questions:
1. That gearbox orientation looks really nice, would you mind posting a picture of the gearbox/internals of your drive?

2. What OD and ID tubing is that on your structure and why did you use that this year?

3. Any issues with balls jamming in the hopper/conveyor?

4. The entire robot looks incredibly light, what was your final weight and what was your method of conserving weight? How much pocketing went into your structure and what material thickness is used around the whole bot?

Looks incredible, thank you for such a beautiful machine. Best of luck in Sacramento.
