Re: What is your drivetrain's top speed?

EEP. Okay.

My question to you, oh CD Community, is this: do you have any students who have driven a robot that travels 17 fps or faster? 14-15 fps is on the edge of control for most drive teams, and the last two years had games in which something between 7-11 fps was usually ideal, so unless your drivers are seniors with experience in Aerial Assault as freshman, this will be a significant challenge.

My question to myself is: which do I think is likely; that those responding to this poll don't realize that their Toughbox Mini only goes at 10fps, or, that my team will be struck by a careening, out-of-control alliance parter while lining up to receive a gear or a load of fuel? I think I will prepare for the worst, and add extra thickness to our gussets. 2014 is still a raw memory.
