As a mentor I'm not quite sure if the tranny design is finalized yet. Right now the team is trying to see if the design will work first of all. We tried this out last year and had to change it so I wouldn't be surprised if we end up going 4wd, but don't quote me. For this game 4wd--maybe with omniwheels on one set--would make sense.
I forgot what the board is called but its really light with corrugated plastic in between to thin sheets of aluminum...light but incredibly strong.
Weightwise she's not so bad right yet, but it will definitely get heavier. This is just the beginning.
The actual shooting mechanism will be mounted on top of the turret, hopefully coupled to the camera (camera should actually be mounted TO the turret). It should sit just on top of what you see now.
It should all be put together by next Saturday. That is, if all the parts come in. Thanks for the feedback, everyone!
