Re: pic: Epsilon Delta v17.0 Control System

This is very difficult work to do. Kudos to team 116 for developing some great experience for budding packaging engineers.

While this is all wonderfull and good, I am a bit distracted by your ******* 15 SPEED CONTROLLERS ********

What do you have? Here is a guess:
  • unicorn swerve drive (8 motors)
  • dual motor tuned shooter (2)
  • manipulators in front and back (2)
  • 3-motor scaling arm, 2 for lifting, one for pivot (3)
If you're pivoting that scaling arm, then you are planning on going under the low bar. Then, another question comes up: How on earth are you packaging this wonderful control system in with all of that other stuff controlled by your 15 SPEED CONTROLLERS????

This may be a ingenious contraption for the ages, or a hot mess. I wanna see pictures and video!
