And what motors does your team use?
Watch the gear reduction to make sure you can actually climb effectively. This way you will not overload your motors.

Assuming you do not drive and climb at the same time, you should be in good shape. The load that is on the shooter will likely be minimal by comparison.

I would make the assumption that most teams are using this set up this year. If not I will be very surprised.

Batteries will die faster than usual this year, so make sure you have at least 4 batteries when you go to competition! More batteries = more time to charge!
