What are you using to lift others? We originally were using carbon-Fiber panels, however ours were going to make our bot' to heavy last momnet and we had to ditch them (our forklift is great though)

Re: pic: Lift this

The whole frame is welded chrome moly tubing. Very strong and very light.
We are using two monocoqued wings. The wings are 17 pounds each and will easily support 200+ pounds with very little flex.

I assume the tubing is donated ... but what are you claiming for its value. That stuff aint cheap!!

That isn't expensive at all if you make it yourself, we made some carbon fiber peices for our manipulator (as to make it more durable) and it wasn't that costly.
