Re: [FTC]: Drive Platform- Design Exercise

Thanks Nick (cadandcookies) for pointing out my error in scoring related to driving/climbing of the robot, as well as capacity of the goals for Debris. Below is revised scoring:

Scoring- The scoring capability related to drive design is challenging related to climbing the mountain. We estimate that purely driving/climbing ability can score 40 points by driving up to the "Mountain High Zone" in Autonomous Mode. And... if the robot can climb to the High Zone, we'll be able "hang" using fairly simple mechanisms (80 points hang & 20 points "All Clear Signal"). So... climbing could affect a total of 140 points for the team.
