Andrew, we've got Grayhill encoders all over the bot, two on the shooter. Grayhill is new to us this year and we're currently in the process of tweaking different speeds AND wheel durometers on the twin (Yes... I used the word durometer... LOL) to get max distance... so we'll get back to you on max distance or we'll show you next week.
On sharing ANY 148 design features between our bots... I believe the only thing we may share is sheet metal construction and awesome powder coating... AND a chit-load of VEXPro parts.
I don't know A THING about their bot this year. MAYBE Parker does, but he has EXTREME integrity on secrets... and darn it, arm-twisting DOESN'T work with him... LOL
I'm one of 148's BIGGEST fans (in more ways than one) and I'm excited to see next Thursday WHAT they've built!
