This is my question to everyone, because this is automatically what I thought when I saw this robot last year. How many other people automatically when they saw GUS say to themselves "dang they got it dead on, and why didn't we think of that". It's an amazing design and above all it's simplistic, which we should all strive for in our designs.

And my question to GUS is this, how did you assemble your conveyer belts? 2228 used a very similar looking system. We took aluminum tubes and riveted wedge top in small sections to create channels for polycord to ride in. This worked pretty well, but on our elevator conveyer the polycord would often slip out, even in competition, and this proved the biggest disadvantage of our system.
