Here's our 2009 prototype drive train, completed by our build students this passed Saturday. It's based on 1565's "Twitch" linkage drive system, and we've made some modifications to comply with this year's rules. For now, this prototype is good enough for the programmers to start on.
Weight: 45 lbs with pneumatics, sans electronics
Geared for 9.6 fps

JesseKIteration 2 has all of that stuff -- the outer frame will be honeycomb fiberglass. The rotating modules are also improved for better strength and more rigidity. A few renderings of what the full bot could look like are on our Sharepoint site.
