This looks awesome, I really look forward to seeing it in action.

How thick is the polycarbonate for your flippers, and how well has it held up?

The flippers were constructed from 1/4" thick sheet. So far they have held up very well! We chipped the end of one of them when we drove full speed into the barrier with them in the down* position. But we've since replaced the end, and adjusted our potentiometer preset positions so the problem wouldn't happen again.

As a side note, wasn't 148's "secret weapon" for 3 robot balancing really cool?

Oh, I get it now.

Have fun with your own triples. My gut says the wider stance of your mechanism will serve you well.
