Re: pic: Bit Buckets 2015 Offseason Drivetrain

Latest iteration looks great! Get some bumpers and weight and drive it like you stole it.

I got to see the previous one (in the car crushing video) in person. It's an extremely clever design that somehow ranks high in all of the desirable categories; extremely stiff, relatively lightweight, and can literally be cut out and assembled in an afternoon out of $50 worth of material. The drop-out wheel modules are pretty neat too, I don't think I've seen something done quite like that before.

Great prototype, I can't wait to see you apply these design concepts to the rest of your robot this season. Might be my new favorite build material.
