Re: how much over weight

It's the most amazing feeling in the world when you find out that you can replace a fisher price motor and lots of wiring and channel with a simple, lightweight mechanical device that does the same thing.

We were about 4 lbs over, but we took off 4.9 lbs right before it was heaved into the crate, and we have about a pound in wires and limit switches that can be removed at competition teams. My question to all the teams that finished amazingly underweight: what was the difference? What made this year the year that your bots all went on diets? I'm curious as to the source of this phenomenon.
