we origonally wanted a 15ft/sec tranny... but then when you look at all the power you lose, and that no robot would really be able to go that fast and have someone contol it, and considering that the robot needs to make a 4' turn to get to the ramp, anything fast will just fall over if your tall. the sensors are also limited to how fast you can go, you would have to be dead reckoning and then if anything goes wrong the slightest bit you miss and take more time. getting up there fast is going to be harder than most teams think
