I wonder why 1/4 inch polycarb was specified...Standard sizes for polycarb (standard as in available at the local Home Depot/Lowes/Ace) is usually 3/16 inch and 5/16 inch...Hmmm

Why expensive and hard to use wood screws that are not that much beefier then common deck screws (specified wood screw = 5/32 inch dia vs about 1/8 inch dia for deck screws)

Also, 4-40 screws are really small, those are the size that fit through the holes in the speed controllers, I wonder what they are for.

My vote for the magnets is that they are on the robot and they trigger some sort of auton mode or score points by activating reed switches or hall effect sensors on the field. (maybe what's in the box)

Good luck everybody!
