Re: Practice T-Shirt cannon robot Treads
Right now, I would strongly advise you to do no work on the T-shirt robot. At all. Nothing, zilch, nada. Put it in a bag if you need to.
You have 6 weeks to build a robot for the competition (46 days). You've already used one day. This game is going to be one of the most difficult challenges I've EVER seen, and I've been doing this since the last time bins were used as scoring objects and watching even longer. Any time spent trying to configure an offseason project is time not spent on building a solid robot for the competition.
That being said, I think 4 tank treads is 2 tank treads too many, or maybe even 4 treads too many. Try wheels first, then treads as an upgrade. Treads are not easy.
