Just thought I'd add a little information about it.

4wd with 4 CIMS through 2 AM Toughboxes
Dual AM KOP Wheels in rear
AM Plastic Omniwheels in front
Grabber opens up with a 6" piston and rollers (powered by FP motor w/ gearbox) accept the ball. The whole mechanism lifts up with a 10" piston and the rollers are reversed to eject the ball.
4 Autonomous Sequences through hybrid available (Left, Center, and Right ball positions, and a lap running sequence).
Each ball removal sequence takes about 6 seconds followed by laps.
Weighs in at 106lbs including the 15lb balast in the front of the chassis
