Re: Robot Cart Questions from a rookie team

FIRST dosn't really care about the cart. It depends on the regional that you are at. However, there are some basic things to keep in mind. Pnumatic lift is fine, having a sterio on the cart is fine, having the cart motorized is fine, having batteries / neons / compressors on your cart is all fine.

Just don't be obnoxious. People don't want to hear how loud you can make a cart when they are trying to work in the pits. Try to keep it small enough to fit through a standard door, and make it fairlly portable.

Have fun with it, make it cool, and be respectful to those around you.
