Re: pic: Team 2502 Chassis Teaser

For sake of comparison our chassis with 4 CIMs, mechanum wheels and all 4 gear boxes is less than 35 pounds...
For what it's worth, we've gone the 80/20 route. While it's great for prototyping and testing, we've found it's far too heavy for competition use. We've since switched to welded thin-wall steel tubing and it seems to work quite well.
