Re: pic: 498's Aircraft Carrier Deployed

Nice design! Two questions/concerns I've got on it.

1. How long's your ramp, and what's the angle on it? Discussions have come up regarding robots not being able to climb a steep ramp- you may want to consider "flattening" it out a little bit.

2. How many bots can you fit on top, once they're up the ramp, and what kind of support do you have overtop of the main body of the robot, to ensure it doesn't break and crush all your electronics??

Nice design overall guys!
