Re: Drive Train & Control Types '07

This seems to be the year of the crab. I have seen so many great teams use it including 71, 111, 118, 384/1086/540, 469, 1503/1680 648 and 1625. It has been very interesting to see all of these teams sliding around the field. These drivetrains are very good but they require some very skilled drivers to operate.

I also was impressed by 703's 14WD. No that is not a misprint. Search CD Media for it. The strength it gave them made them strong defenders and they are able to get up just about any ramp that is put down in front of them.

The two quickest drives I have seen are 247 and 1114. I know the Simbots can get to 14 FPS and I would not be surprised if Da Bears weren't going at least that fast. These two robots are going to be scary at championship.
