Re: Offensive/Defensive

i drove a D bot last year for 1391 and we made it the the finals at philly.

the basic idea behind D is to disrupt the flow of the game and keep the opposing alliances bots from scoring. same thing applies to non robot sports like hockey, football, or soccer.


a good D bot has three things

1. high torque, high traction drivetrain, and a strong frame that can take serious abuse
2. the ability to disrupt the game
3. a driver who isn't afraid to hit and push other robots
