Which would be "doing the math" would it not be? I disagree that there is structural feedback you can't get off a napkin since the lightening of 2337's hanging system was a napkin* sketch but I will give you the benefit of the doubt. The ones that bother me are the ones that say, "We go X fps" and then when questioned about that number are unable to tell us their ratios. To me it screams that they pulled a number out of their behind.

If mentors don't respect the students' desire to learn and take an active role in the construction, they're missing the point of FIRST. If students refuse to accept the knowledge and experience of the mentors, that's not independence - it's arrogance. - DB213parent [more]
