Re: To build the kit base or not?

I find that it is a good idea to build the kitbot just so you get an idea of what other teams robots may perform like.

As for using it as your competition robot, it is certianly a cheap, fast and rather durable frame/gearbox, but we often find that our own custom built frames are better for the applications in which we use them.
