As a teammate of James' and member of a formerly rookie team, my advice is to keep it simple. Work on building a small robot that does one task (pushing is usually very good) as opposed to a large, overly complex robot that does many things (like we did: forklift arms, big wings to the sides, the thing weighed 130 pounds if we were lucky. We were about to start cutting holes in it to make it lighter.)
But yeah. Pusherbot. And to save time, it is perfectly alright to make a frame from PVC and plywood. It doesn't look as good, but it weighs less and is easier to build.
However, do not confuse faith in your ability to overcome challenging obstacles, with the difficulty of the obstacles themselves. - Joe G. [more]
