Re: our robot is hallin down the hallway.

After 4 years of coming home from the pre-ship scrimmage and having to rework our drivetrain, I'm going to jump on the "find some carpet to test it on" bandwagon. The scrimmage was always the first time we drove the robot on field carpeting. The year we did tank treads we had to significantly rework the drivetrain in the two days before shipping, and still had problems on the carpeting.

After that, we got a piece of actual field carpeting to roll out in the hallway for testing.
