Re: The Age before AndyMark

Before the AM tough-boxes of 2005 every team would get two Bosch drill motors and transmissions that were widely used. A lot of skyway wheels were used. My team even made all-machined-aluminum omni wheels one year. We also did fully custom swerve with 2 bosch transmission and 2 CIMs geared with worm gears in 2002, with the BASIC Stamp IFI robot controller... which doesn't have negative numbers, let alone trig functions.

It was much more challenging to do things 5-6 years ago that most teams consider common-place today both because of Andy Mark and because of the big improvements in RC sophistication.
