I know I'm late to the party, but thank you both so much! We're still reeling from how good this robot is. I know we weren't up to snuff at SCH--we got our tails kicked in semis for a variety of reasons--but we're working those kicked tails off for MAR (80 points; fingers crossed). We want to show everyone that 30 (50?) point climb much more often!
To answer your question, Sean, it's basically all of the above. The big thing though is the drive code; we've finally got truly holonomic drive. The better modules, lower CG and faster finish (more practice) really makes it shine. Thanks for the compliments!
