Re: What is your teams (general) robot design? (2015)

It seems that most teams have the attitude that they have invented the greatest thing since sliced bread, and don't want to give away their secrets. OTOH, we learned long ago that posting info about our design early on has two big advantages: 1. If we messed up and are pursuing a lousy idea, folks here will quickly set us straight and help us find a better way to do it. 2. We might help some other teams that are struggling.

YMMV. It's worked for us for almost a decade.
