do those colored flags do anything besides give a nice atmosphere and help the driver orient themselves? also, i remember there being a teaser about omni-wheels. could that be in the big mysterious container at the end of each wing? that would allow 45 to move themselves back when needed, if someone pushed them.
also, i'm sure there's something hidden. if the technokats plan to sit on top for 2 minutes, i would be dissapointed. of course, that makes me think a modular robot, which would mean these wings are but a part of what will be showing up. of course, we didn't see anything besides the wings, drive train, and omni-wheels. of course, maybe the omni-wheels could completely replace the treads, but that'd be slightly insane i think. doable, but slightly insane.
all in all though, very nice robot. i hope to see more in houston (if 810 comes and makes our bot work
).
