: I am on a rookie team this year, and we are trying to provide our robot with more traction to pull the goals onto the bridge. In addidition to doing four-wheel drive, we are thinking of making some wheels out of metal, which would be similar to a gear, but with points. Would this be allowed, or would FIRST dq it because it could damage the carpet?
: Any other ideas to get more traction would be appreciated too!
Well FIRST definitely won't DQ you if you build em. Last year in Long Island there was a robot like that. It got pretty decent traction, it even stood up to our gearboxes (we were tossin other bots around)
Good luck with it...
