Be afraid... Be VERY Afraid

Actually, new question (I'm sure you can answer this without giving away what this magnificent machine is) - Is the smaller wheel powered?

Yes, both wheels are simultaneously powered

Oh good, now I don't feel so bad at looking at the CAD model (Which looks beautiful, by the way) and being absolutely dumbfounded about what it actually is. While the guess that it is a shifting wheel, as it stands right now it doesn't appear that either of the wheels are actuated (Might just be the angle).

I'm intrigued as to how this would be a revolutionary design both in and outside of FIRST. Perhaps once light is shed on its design I will be able to figure out how revolutionary it is.

Thank you for the CAD compliment! And yes, it's just the angle. Both wheels are actuated as a matter of fact.

Could we get a top down view?

Wait, the slot near the big wheel looks the same size as the other side. Can this thing flip 180 degrees?
