Re: Dutch Rookies after 4 weeks

That looks really nice... for a moment I was worried that you had only driven the robot on the linoleum floor, but some of the shots at the end make it look like you've been testing it on carpet, too.

We made a "rookie mistake" our first year, and built a four wheel drive, skid steer robot... that turned beautifully on hard surfaces like cement and linoleum, but when we got to the competition and put it on carpet... well... let's just say robots perform much better when they can turn!
