Both very sensible and practical suggestions.

I will be difficult to balance even if all of the robots are the same weight; weight distribution will affect the ease of balancing just as much as the actual weight of the robot. In the end, the best that you can do is talk to your alliance partners.

Of course, that's not entirely true. We could all build the same robot so that we know all of the dimensions of each others' robots before we show up for competition, but what would be the fun in that?
