: you could be just like a sawblade, go out there and knock the poo out of other teams...
hmmm, you should see the door we hit by accident.
: what is the point of having it turn that fast anyway? if i go back the the "basic board" and use logic that they teach you in the first week of your first team, doesnt that mean you are sacrificing traction and the ability to precisely guide your robot?
we have a lot of traction and was able to pull 300 lbs. we're not that heavy (thank god). the point of turning that fast ? ummm, greed me thinks. not mine though, the students, i only built it.
: but hey, it looks cool, doesn't it...
indeed. i just hope it works as good as it looks.
