Re: reusing drive design

Can you? Yes, we can do it because we have time between now and next year to think about designs.
Have you? Certainly. Our 2005 robot was all about hugging the floor to avoid wedges. This year our robot (see photo- tag: frc604) was built with Poof clearance both sides and front/back, keeping it high off the floor. Two very diiferent designs.
Should you? I think so, because our center of gravity was just a tad too high this year. (You know what that means... Timber!)
Will you? Yes, because we are eager to try something different once again. You'll see next year!
