Makes you kinda wonder if Andy and Mark are finding any time to work or their robot!

Should I post a pic of your chassis tonight after the welding is complete as part of your teaser?

hmmmm.....3 AM shifters and 6" omni's....i'm guessing a 3 wheel drive base with a shifter per wheels..that or a shifting arm (I seriously doubt that) whatever it is I am sure we will be amazed.

2 Speed Kiwi Bot?

[Ianworld]

Find that hard to believe. A Kiwi bot will never truly have as much power as a head on 4 wd drive bot. It just doesn't have the power due to weight being distributed on a wheel or wheels that aren't powered in the direction you need. The kiwi bots real advantage is in its maneuverability, which it should focus on. At least thats my take.

Some of you are very close. Yes, we will be using two AndyMark transmissions for our drivetrain. The third transmission pictured is actually a spare. We might use the AndyMark omni wheels, that's currently under debate. We will have an arm and it will most likely use a worm gear setup (that's currently being designed ).
No, we definitely won't use the worm gear pictured. That was bought accidentally last year and we have kept it around as a joke. Each piece weighs close to 10 pounds and looks like it belongs in a locomotive.

Yeah sure, thank you and your team for helping us. I don't know what we would have done without your help
