Interesting concept.

I really like that teams are focusing on mobility. I know that a lot of the FRC world likes defense but I'm a big fan of offense and that means getting out off pins.

Overclocked built Rover with mobility in mind with many of the features you discussed, specifically continuous bumpers which are a big advantage imho.

I suggest you consider sailcloth as an added feature. The Rover project has convinced me that sailcloth is the way to go (watch the video for a demo),

Great preseason project.
