Re: pic: Team 100 Prototype Base - Underside

This is a really nice example of a modifiable prototype chassis. 55 lbs ain't bad, our mecanum base last year was 80 lbs, while the arm was 30 or so. With all the weight down low, we never were close to tipping over. The method of tensioning is also a pretty slick idea. How heavy are the wheels? Will you be using a similar chassis layout with the box extrusion?
