Yes, wheels!
I've never been a big fan of the wheelchair wheels, and it seems like such a waste of time to have to design/manufacture custom wheels. This seems like a no-brainer to me.
I'm starting to think they should dump the pneumatics. We actually used them this year, just for the challenge of course, but they seem like such a waste of space and weight. I'd rather see a few more motor options instead, maybe another high torque one. Sorry SMC.
Other than that, I'm pretty content. Removing the limit on the structural materials and gears/sprockets/chain was all I ever wanted.
