hey, just a thought, they couldn't be geared way down or they wouldn't be going that 15 fps that they say, but i guess i'll let them answer the rest for themselves
oh, and hey, i was not trying to be rude in my last post on this thread, i was just present when we decided to start this thread, and it was mind-boggling to see all these ultra-fast bots, i mean we've achieve the low 2-second range, but it destabilized our battery pulling that much amperage that quickly, so we've geared down a bit.
