Re: [FTC]: Defense robots and competition

This is something i'm noticing in a lot of videos and quite frankly I'm quite annoyed with it. Designing a robot with a quick way of scoring and getting around the field, more complex isn't always better. Remembering things from last year I swear we had the most basic robot robot out there and it got the job done to the extent we got picked for the world winning alliance. The object is is following the KISS method. but I will say this 4WD will be very useful if you get stuck in a pushing battle with another team.
