Re: Thoughts on whether the size change will be permanent?
Andy,
The sizing box was no more of a choke point than weighing. It also was a rather visual declaration to other teams that your robot made size. It either fits or it doesn't just like it is either 120 lbs or it is too heavy.
Cal,
While it may work for your team now, a smaller drive person may really struggle in the future. Realistically, we are asking students to lift 75 lbs. about 26 times minimum over a three day period. Pulled muscles and back pain is a real result. I have been concerned about the weight for a while and I only lift it a few times during build.
