Question of the Week!!! (9/6/04)

111's 2004 drive system. God, it's BEAUTIFUL! I cried! Sure, it wasn't the fastest nor the most nible, but it could move across the platform WITHOUT EVEN CHANGING HEIGHT! WOW!

I think I have two favorites, one was actually used. My favorite is the Ball Drive that 45 made last year as a "second robot". But, one that actually got used was Wildstangs drivebase this year, with omni wheels and the hydraulics to get up on to the platform to hang.

The best drive system I ever saw this year was Wild Stangs (111's)
In sheer complexity, Stang's double (222, get it) would get my vote.

2003: I don't remember.

In 2002, Beatty (71) had an awesome drive system, coupled with an awesome robot.
We (461) also had a pretty cool drive system that year, but it weighed fifty pounds and left little weight for an arm. It was a good robot, though, and we even won against beatty in one match.
