Re: Do you think a practice robot is needed to compete?

558, starting in 2014, builds at a minimum a second chassis. Given the withholding allowance this allows us the ability to iterate our superstructures while not breaking our bank. As a smaller team with limited resources and funding we are working to expand our abilities but living within our current limits.
