Looks really slick! I can definitely see the inspiration from the 2011 and 2012 548 robots. Also pretty similar to our design (and many other teams') from a somewhat top-level standpoint.

We originally had 2 of the springs, but we were not happy with the power and bumped it up to 4. I believe it about doubled our range.
