4 Wheel Drive Too Much Traction

IMHO, [the driver's] job is to drive the robot. The coaches job is to monitor everything in a match that isn't your robot. - CalTran [more]

Re: 4 Wheel Drive Too Much Traction

I think we're going to see alot of robots with this approximate design (chute with indexer, dropping into a linear shooter at a ~30deg angle).

This particular robot seems much heavier than it needs to be though... Why two gearboxes to a side unless you were putting mecanums on it? The whole chassis appears to be steel tube and bent sheet steel, which, might be more viable this year than ever before, with the reduced perimeter, but still.
