Wow! Way to put down any chance of inspiration for this rookie team. I don't think this is the right way to approach there ideas as out there as they may be. Perhaps you should use all of your asuperior knowledge to help instead of criticize.

design and build a manipulator and mount it to the kit drivetrain. you need to get it in your head that polygon wheels are hard to make and even harder to use. cavemen invented the wheel. not the decagon. there is a reason.

not to mention oddball frame shapes are only for those who have a lot of human resources and experience.

if you are a troll, leave. go. get a life.

if you are an idiot, quit this nonsense while you are ahead.

if you are unaware, get your head into the game and rethink your work.

sorry to be uber-critical, but i do not tolerate stupidity well.
