We had a moving bot for 5 minutes last sunday. Then everything went back to machining for weight loss. We just needed to make sure it coud get up the 6 inches.
Great to hear about a Rookie doing well.
Keep having fun

I think that weight is one of the toughest obstcles that my eam will face this year, we have everythign built, but its heavy... We are weighing her in tomorrow and I would bet that our robot weighs 140-150lb's.
any tips for removing weight, we used mostly angle aluminum for our chassis and structure, where is it ok to take away metal without severely reducing the structural integrity?
