Re: Low-Rider Robots

Team 662's bot can now be classified as a "low rider". As you can see in the pic, it's barely off of the ground, we're probably going to put larger wheels on, just because the slightest bump in the carpet could beach the thing. But even after we raise it a bit, it'll still be pretty low to the ground.

In a game like this year's tipping is going to be a serious issue, so the lower the center of gravity, the less vulnerable you are.
