We're a little slower than most. We will be starting to mount the new stuff on Saturday. We are planning to weigh the parts as we go. While the new parts are definitely bigger, they are not that much bigger.

We are using our 08 practice 'bot, which like our real 'bot, has two decks for electronics. For the demo 'bot we need to increase the size of the upper deck. It will now be the same size as our competition 'bot's. We also need to re-arrainge some things but that is to be expected.

Bottom line: yes the stuff is larger, but it is not huge. The change should be managable for most robots.
