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

For those that don't build a practice bot, do you have other "experiment bots" that you can use as a drive platform for testing mechanisms, drive trains, autonomous modes?

My team hopes to build a practice bot if for nothing else than to have something for the programming and controls teams to have something to experiment with in parallel with other stuff being developed. And then for next year to have something driveable during the pre-season.
