Eric,
As noted by the "FTW" I was referring to their WINNING robot, not it's ancestors.
I've been a huge fan of the super-elegant 2005, 2007, 2008 Beachbot robots. In 2005 & 2007 in particular I loved the 4-bar designs my teams utilized, but then saw that 330 could score as well or better with just a single joint. Simplicity yields elegance.
