Re: 2594 Robot Preview

Ok, with the issue of the wheels, as eric pointed out we are using the KOP wheels and not affecting them in any way, and the hubcap locks in inside of the wheel so nothing touches the ground. Our hubcaps are printed out on a 3D prototype machine so they are legal in every way shape or form, that is unless the judges think it is so cool that they throw us for unfair advantage. . Also, the main tube design is made out of a very light aluminum so that there is vry little weight. We are designing all of the electiracal parts to go on the bottom, so our center of gravity is theoretically very low. Unless for some reason we add a lead weight to the top that should be fine too. Thanks to all of the comments from all of the teams and mentors that we are getting, your guys' comments just keep motivating us to finish and do well. We are very excited to go to competition now and see all of the others.
One more question that I ahve been getting is about videos. I am currently trying to get some vids up there, but due to my lack of knowledge when it comes to that I am struggling a little bit. A note to everyone that would like to see a video. On monday I am giong to the district's tech teacher and he said he will help me get the vids up. SO... by noonish Mountain time hopefully I will have videos up for you guys.

Thanks alot for the great comments and feedback. Good Luck To all from NASKCO!!!
