Re: [FTC]: EXPENSIVE!!!!

We actually were specifically centering our designs around minimizing our costs on parts. To my knowledge the only stuff we have bought besides the original kit was 2 servos, 2 brackets, some extra axels, bushings, and a few extra batteries, and a few metal beams. So maybe $200-350 total for extra parts.

I think our design didn't suffer, we can still deliver 8-10 pucks at once to the 20" goal. We still have mid years, so we have to make a few tweaks before our first tournament, once our mid years are over, I'll post some pictures here.
