We've completed our 2003 drivetrain. Having decided the pre-made one FIRST packaged in the kits was overly complex for this year's game, we decided on something much simpler.
Dissapointingly there is only one Van-door motor in the kit. Steering may become an issue as the testing phase begins.
UTC 2003, it's the place to be!

Hey John,
You can create a self balancing unicycle with one gyro can't you?

Our integration of the Segway technology into the robot was supposed to remain a secret! Now everyone is gonna copy us!
Ohh man... ohh man...

DaveErrrrmmm.... Dudes? you should have TWO van door motors... yeah... not that you look like you're using them... buuuuut... if you WANT two... mebbe you should talk to someone....
I like the segway idea, too bad that ours hovers, we should have done the unicycle thing.

nickmaWhy two motors use anyways it just twice the number of motor mounts twice the number of electronics and twice the amount of power used. Believe in KISS and it will work.
