FIRST is difficult and it is challenging, but you aren’t necessarily required to go off and build an 8 motor drivetrain and 4 motor / 8 pneumatic piston arm mechanism for the heck of it when a 2 motor non-shifting drivetrain and 2 motor arm does just as good a job. - Bill Gold [more]

..... the tower is programmed to 1/10 speed? That thing is by far the fastest and smoothest lift I've seen this year.

Oh, and the Drivetrain seems a bit different aside from what you listed. I meant to ask Shaun about it, but it appears way more agile than previous 25 robots.
