Your theory vs. your capability
Now that your robot is (hopefully) built and tested (to some degree), how well is your design standing up to reality? Is your CG that solid? Your tetra grabber that fast?
Vote, and qualify.
I'll start. Turns out one of our articulated arms motors isn't quite strong enough to lift what it needs to lift in a certain degree range, but we've managed to compensate for that by keeping it out of that degree range using an almost-as-effective pattern of arm movement.
Our CG is pretty solid; we're underweight; and it looks pretty good.
