That's great! Our robot runs too. Unfortunately ours doesn't lift or herd balls yet. (And it tends to crash in Hybrid mode.)

So you guys are just going to run laps?

Well, right now that's pretty much all it can do , but our arm team is in the making of the design for our arm.

we have like 3 grabber designs on Inventor, but we still need to pick one. I hope you guys have a competitive robot.

Haha I know the feeling. We have three built (well, mostly built) prototypes. All we have left to do is test them and decide on one.

well i hope it works for us. I mean it turns really nicely in the gym. We havn't had steering probs with designs with 4X4 before

It'll work, our last two years we have used the IFI high traction wheels in a similar foot print, in fact our last years bot has the same foot print for the wheels plus or minus a few inches

On top of this, The controls team I believed dialed down the speed, and we have a faster sprockets, so thats nowhere near as fast as we can go if we want.
