Re: Wide vs. Tall

I feel like it is easier to make a bot that can hold more fuel with the tall bot. However, it's completely possible to make a bot that holds 20+ fuel with the wide one and its safer to make a short wide bot with a large wheel base if you're planning on racing around the field. A tall bot that is trying to be fast and race across the field is going to have a hard time not flipping.
