What are the specs on the gearboxes?

The only thing I can say is I can't wait to see you guys at competitions.

And I really hope you have bumpers.

Our loveable 5 and 15fps. Due to the nature of the game, I can see myself driving this with the default being 15fps, and downshifting when it's time to score. Afterall, it isn't called overdrive for nothing.

They're sort of required.... So I'd hope we did.

Nope. The middle wheel is lowered by .1inches.

Or are the corners raised .1 inches?

Nope. The outer wheels are centered in the 2x1, and the middle wheel is lowered.

This has been plenty for us in the past, so we're doing it again.

Nope.

The manipulator folks have more than enough to work with as is.

No need for defense, so why make something made for defense? Honestly, I'd rather have something that can turn as good as my 6 wheel can. If pushing were allowed, I wouldn't even hesitate using it.

Uh. This isn't a 4 wheel drive, it's a 6 wheel. As for the 4 wheel v. 2 wheel, please search the forum and read the many threads created about this topic.

Nice, but where are the CIM's pinion gears? I would comment on the design itself, but I can't really think of much to add. It is a proven design. To tell the truth, what I really want to post about is the picture itself. I find that when teams go for a photorealistic render, it tends to look like a pale/too shiny imitation of nature. Similarly, the plain old screenshots tend to look bad to me because they just look unfinished. However, this picture I like; it doesn't look like a failed job at photorealism, but, at the same time, it also it doesn't look like some random screenshot. Nice work!
