Re: pic: Team 1595 Prototype!!! L@@K

Hey, Thanks for all your support on everything. And for all the questions, we are able to run our compressor for almost the whole match and still be fine. We don't use as much battery power as you would if you were starting and stopping all the time. Another thing is that we added some support and helper pistons to make it easier for us to lift. I will get some pics up later today of it. And we HAVE decided to go with 6 wheel drive as it will help use greatly for driving. As for the center of gravity, we have it pretty well nailed. We haven't had any problems with tipping over and we can have our arm extended all the way w/a tetra on the end and not have any problems with tipping. It's really stable. We are also going to be replacing the back A from with something a little more stable. The parts are all being made as we speak.

Keep the comments coming, and if you have any ideas or concerns, please let us know as we are just starting and are a rookie team. THanks
