What else can you do with an FRC drivetrain?

The "Vehicle in a Box" competition is an annual capstone project for our students in the Technology Teacher Education Program at BCIT. They go on to become high school technology education ("shop") teachers in B.C.

As some random guy explains on this video clip, they are very limited in the funds they have to build these vehicles (so don't expect to see any additional AM or VexPro stuff here), and they have to pack their vehicle away into a box (about the size of two VRC sizing boxes, although we let them keep the wheels and batteries outside the box) and reassemble prior to competition.
