Re: pic: FRC488 - 80/20 Drive Train

Elegant in its simplicity--very nice.

Is this to be used as a test bed for trying new ideas, or do you think we could see Team Xbot using this in a future competition robot? I only ask this because of the additional weight of an 80/20 frame and fasteners, along with other issues with the potential of loosening fasteners.
