Re: Team 1114 - Simbot SideSwipe

Not to put too fine a point on it, but they seem to have made a similar trade offs to another team I'm familiar with (cough, cough, Overclocked, cough cough)

Specifically, large wheel base 3 Wheel Drive with the ability to go in all directions. I haven't seen them in transport configuration but I suppose the right and left wheel modules fold back behind their tower. Am I right or am I crazy?

In any case, it looks like another beautiful robot from a FIRST team with a history of making great robots. Well done.

Cheers,
Joe J.
