Our robot was pretty low to the ground (only 20-some inches tall) and everything but the grabbers sat on the main deck inside. We put the compressor in the front right over the wheel and the battery in the back left over a wheel. The arms went down the middle, but everything else was on a plywood sheet at the mid-wheel level. Our center of gravity was VERY low, unlike last year's bot (which I won't get into.... 13' arms, 26" wheelbase....ugh)...
