Also, that swing arm looks very familiar. Does it have any in/out adjustability to permit operator alignment error? With mecanum and the ability to strafe, this shouldn't be as big a concern for your team relative to one that has a standard xWD drivetrain.

And Banebots has to be loving the run on puke-green Banebots wheels this year. :-)

Yea we have an old 610 robot in our lab from '02 that had one of those old rotating lights and one of our students contacted American Signal Company and got the three on our robot donated. With how the game is developing not sure how much use we will get out of them, but they sure are pretty.

The swing arm is basically ram into the base and as long as the robot is touching the base it swings the minibot into the pole.

Yea those banebot wheels are nice, the tread is really gummy, nice and light, come with a 1/2" hex. We need to clean ours off a bit, they got pretty dirty when practicing at our sponsors wear house.
