Yeah we think we know an easy way to trim off at least 15 pounds by changing the roller/belt system. The plastic hopper material is also heavier than is needed. I'm sure we can get it off. Our first year we were 70 pounds overweight at the start of week 6, but then we did significantly redesign the robot that year. The problem for us is we have to use all the CIM motors, they are heavy. Note to self: always assume you have to use all the CIMs for your robot when planning. Besides, I need something to hole saw during the regional
Oh and our crate is overweight too, with hte robot inside with nothing else IF it weights 120lbs, we have 20lbs of weight left before hitting 400lbs.. ROFL. Have to use our crate from last year.
