Just a though.

The should fall under the same category as AndyMark transmissions or Team221's other products. [Standard disclaimer about rules changing year to year here]

EDIT: In response to Cory below me:

I have to second the feeling that more teams moving reliably is a good thing. Using the Kettering Rookie Regional in 2008 as an example we only had 1 machine not move reliably, the reason? They tried to do a crab drive their first year out and refused to accept any help (No I will not reveal who they were, I simply do not recall). To teams that feel asking for help or using something that is already in place makes you 'less' a team I am going to tell you something, ASK FOR HELP! Anthony and the rest of Team221 are willing to help and you should never turn aside help. I have struggled most of my life about asking for help, after my first couple negative reviews I quickly swallowed my pride and take assistance when I need it. Pride cometh before the fall. If you think for one second that if 330 were building a swerve drive and needed help and they had access to one of 111's old robots they wouldn't peek under the tie-dye you are hopelessly mistake (330 was used as an example I have no affiliation nor can I be 100% sure I am correct, please take this as it was intended and don't be offended. Thank You) There is nothing wrong with admitting you don't know, many people, myself included, will respect a person more for admitting they don't know than making something up.
