a note to you... after driving the robot around, we found that the wheels didn't do the job that we wanted... it worked on paper and our teaser video's, but when we actually tested it for the competition we found it wouldn't be enough... so when a few members of the team went up to the BAE regional in NH, we found several teams using a vacuum system... they said that the took the vacuum from a Wal-Mart dust-buster and replaced it with a Fisher Price motor... the for the suction... we put a $2 sink plunger... it was up to our standards and worked out quite well in competitions
