Re: Open Brainstorming Thread

Kokoed, I think you bring up a really intersting point. One thing I notice about the robot in your picture is that it probably has a pretty stable center of balance. The tetras are 9 pounds, which means your 120 lb. robot needs to be able to stay firm and quick despite that extra weight.

Something I noticed is that if you want to work out that whole "10 points for behind end zone" thing, your robot base might have to be slightly smaller. This may cause problems, who knows!
