 Sometimes, it takes years to gain respect and to learn to understand the opportunities that avail themselves to those who pay attention, are willing to learn from the best, and dig deeper into understanding what it means to be a competitive FRC team. - JaneYoung [more] |

2 inch chrome alloy. We can successfully manipulate the 2x ball and get on the bar from either platform.

Do you mean Chromoly steel?
If so, those suckers must be pretty heavy.
Looks nice and simple though

Not as heavy as you would think. The arms are lighter than a similar aluminum design. The bot weighs in at 122 right now.

We did at first but our prospective drivers have gotten quite good at controlling it. And most of the time even when we did tip we could use the arms to right ourselves. Most of our tipping problems were going up the steps, the ball we usually handled just fine.

226,
We're looking forward to seeing you at Great Lakes in two weeks! The bot looks great. As always - nice looking track system. What else are you going to use the left over 8 pounds for?
Good luck from 302!

Thanks for the compliments. Can't wait to see your bot this year. As far as weight, we have some guarding that will cover the electronics and the tracks and possibly some other thins if we have anything left after that.
