Go to Post Judging the Championship CA must be the hardest thing to do in FIRST. I'd rather try to stop an alliance of 1114, 111, and 25 from scoring 3 pointers than to judge the CA between these teams. - Andy Baker [more]

drivebases designed to prevent tipping

Hi,

I would like to take a survey (of those willing to share) of wheel base designs. The idea we're pursuing is a six wheel drive in which the forward and aft wheels pivot about the center so that our bot will conform to the bump as we go over. I'm wondering if anyone else has similar ideas. If not, what do you guys think of such an idea? I've seen several posts on it throughout the forum, but I don't see a strong consensus whether or not it would be an effective design.

I am particularly worried about the robot flipping so that is why were pursuing the articulated drivebase. Do you guys agree that this design will help?

Much appreciated for your time!
Windell
