Okay for those that said No, you are partially correct. I think we can live with our design. Video of the robot will hopefully be posted this weekend on our team's discussion board.

The robot drove good the first time with the code. When they added in code and control for zero degree spin, that worked the first time as well

We can get up the ramp if a second robot is behind us keeping the robot from spinning and rolling down the ramp when the front wheels are about 3/4 the way up the ramp. I know this because I was able to put my feet on the back end while seated behind the robot which keep the angle of attach perpendicular to the ramp. Once the front tires get over the lip they are back on a level surface and pull the robot over the top. It is a lot of spinning wheels So one of those alliance partner robots with the IFI or AM traction tires gets behind us we are up and on without too much work.


On the plus side, it is way to cool to swerve or strafe
