If you have a part that you would like to see put onto the calculator, please send all the necessary info to weights@cyberblue234.com If you are able to take a picture of the item, that would also be great for when this database plans to be a website based version next year. You may download the calculator here
Please send all questions and queries to weights@cyberblue234.com as they will be able to answer any questions, and not me.
Give it a try!!

DUDE! Nice contribution from the team! I'm sure that instead of people deciding to drill holes (AKA - Swiss Cheeseing it) they will be able to keep track of their weight during the build - instead of after!
Surgeon General Warning - "Swiss Cheesing" has been noted to cause losses, structural failure, and even total robot failure. Please refrain from drilling holes into your robot to help keep weight down.
