Re: pic: 2008 FIRST team 1001

First off Ill start off with what I like. I'm glad someone is actually realizing the scale of things when making their robot (the ball is bigger then their robot). However, I am wondering where your manipulator is, and if you are just trying to be a speed robot this is an awful drivetrain to do it with. Being on all Omnis people will be able to push you around with nothing you can do about it. Also as far as speed you only get 50% of your output twards speed, the rest of the power goes towards the wheels pulling away from each other. But ambitious none the less and good luck!

Anyone can watch Westcoast Choppers and see adults build things, but FIRST is great because it encourages kids to do the building and adults to do the watching.

GO DANVILLANS!!
