It makes me wonder if we're doing something wrong. Our robot looks like it's going to come in at about 85-90# including electronics but before ballasting and battery. Granted, it's definitely front-heavy as built, but we're more worried about getting the other 60-65# into as small a package as we can than about ending up with a too-forward COG, even carrying four totes, or two totes and an RC (oops; I gave away our stacking strategy
).
