I can't tell from the picture, but the section of the ramp that deploys from the rear one piece, or does it have a gap in the middle?
Is the device sticking out of the ramp at the rear just to ensure that your ramp doesn't become a "traction device", or does it raise the whole ramp to 12"?
Can you load tubes off the ground, or just the wall?
Is there a camera that I'm missing, is it coming later, or are you guys not using it?
What motors are used where, and are you using DeWalt transmissions again?
And of course, the perennial 469 question, HOW DID THAT MAKE WEIGHT!?!


Sorry for the tons of questions, but 469 is really one of the more inspiring bots every year, and I'm dying to learn more about Cornelius. Good luck, I'm sure you will be a force to be reckoned with at GLR.
Hope you can pull off the ramp-ringer combo, nobody really has yet.


No problem about the questions, And yes we were under weight and its our secret, not really but very conservative to some areas you can take off alot of your weight. Thanks for all the positive feedback.
