Feel free to ask more questions. Hopefully, we'll have more pictures up on our website soon.
BEN
I appeciate your willingness to answer questions!
Looks like the largest size chassis kit?
What's your motor count/use?
I see 4 on wheels (4") direct drive
2 as pair? for elevator,
1 for lower roller,
1 for upper roller?

What is the ball pickup mech, I see tank tread.
Looks like the small wheels used for ball roller have their tires inside out;
thats the first time I've seen that, did your team think it up or see it elsewhere?

What is the most activity done during Autonomous mode, just dump the preload, or any line-following or random driving? There is mention of scoring 3 balls in autonomous mode, but I thought the rules were no more than 2 balls per robot? Did you take a handoff from your partner?
Thanks, I'm looking forward to more details at the website.
