Looks nice, but due to the nature of the compitition this year (hitting is allowed) that design seems EXTREMELY prone to being tipped.
Incidental contact is allowed. Intentional ramming is not! The monocoque design is very light weight when you use .040" aluminum.
There are going to be allot of bots with a high COG this year.
We practiced going up the ramp, a couple of days ago, with the battery in the middle of the bot. It went up the ramp on it's back four wheels. Didn't tip over. We plan on having the battery towards the front to get the front two wheels on the ramp.
