Sheet Metal vs KitBot

Another way to look at it is resource cost.

For most teams, they get much more functionality out of a beefed up kop drivetrin for lesser resource cost.

Many tops teams have perfected the process of drive trains and have also collected a good deal of resources, allowing them to spend time to get a drivetrain that is a little lighter, or performs a little better.

I feel we have one of the best 6wd designs in terms of efficiency, weight, and how difficult it is for us to make it. However, it's not *that* much better than a kop frame. It is certainly less efficient resource wise, but we have enough to handle it.

I believe that any team that hasn't fielded a robot that has every system of it at a top level, they should keep running a souped up kop drive so they can better spread out their resource and efforts.
