Re: FIRST Team 3038 minibot testing

Not bad!
a couple of questions:
1. are all 4 wheels being powered? If not you are slowing yourself down.

2. how is your deployment system? right now. Deployment is more important than speed. Getting a slow minibot up the poll every match will make you a VERY strong team this year.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.

Thumbs up Re: FIRST Team 3038 minibot testing

I think wilsonmw04 is right with his first post. At the GKC we saw some incredibly fast minibots, but there deployment was terrible. If you can get a good deployment with that minibot and you could have a great system.
