Re: How are you going to operate you're robot?

Our robot's base chassis is an omnidrive, complete with forklift, a gyro and a big claw. There are going to be 2 operators, one to drive and one to manipulate the tubes (unless they changed the design again...). Our gyro is to keep the robot on course, so if it's bumped, it will try to counter the bumping. our loose battery has been giving us quite a bit of strife... it mucks up the gyro and causes spurious movements.
