Yessir it is. A couple of our teams have been collaboratively working on minibot design since the beginning of the season. Slowly but surely we all also came to the same conclusions in design as 254 etc.. (or at least we think we have because we're all running similar speed minibots).

Our group of teams would like to thank 1625 and Richard's post about the Tetrix motor specs for initial design inspiration. Anything after that has been under our own development and we have all accomplished 1-1.5 second minibots.

I'm surprised we're still seeing the "who inspired what" debates especially after sanddrag pretty much explained what most teams who came to this minibot design went through.

Thanks for your insight in your own design sanddrag! It is the very same engineering process we went through. The big issue we were having was the light switch we found (which thankfully Al said is legal! ).

Now onto making deployment faster
