Conversation just happened with some students on my team and it got me thinking...
Some years ago, 1114 posted an excellent resource for many teams to help them turn the kitbot chassis into something far superior. So in the spirit of the Simbotics
Kitbot on Steroids project, I'd like to propose an updated version of the project or at least pulling some suggestions together for struggling teams.
The kitbot has come a long way since then but it's still not the best it can be for every game so what minor alterations can you make to the kitbot this year to make it more effective in competition?
Right off, I think replacing the kitbot wheels with wheels that can take rough top blue nitrile tread turns the basic kitbot into a much more defensively capable robot. What other suggestions can folks come up with?
