Re: Did you make a second robot? [POLL]

This is our third year building a second robot.

For Ultimate Ascent, we built one wooden-framed and one aluminum-framed robot. We continued to learn from "Woody" (with a wood chassis) even after "Buzz" (all-metal) was in the bag.

For Recycle Rush, we built "twins". We continued to work on the "strafe wheel" of our H-drive system, and our pickup "rake" from bag to Bayou Regional, and again until CMP.

For Stronghold, we again build twin drive chassis, and worked on both our "pickup" and "launch" mechanisms within our 30 pound withholding allowance after bag day.
