I haven't got a clue.... The frame is near max size. The actual spacing of the wheels was determined by a student in Inventor. I'm a previous student and am technically a programming mentor. I had a phone with internet so I posted the video. If you want the exact dimensions I can find out and let you know.

I would very much appreciate that, because I'm curious to see how well our teams robot will do that, and I'd like to just compare robots
