This robot has very clean lines. Looks fantastic.

I noticed two CIMs driving the front mecanums and a third CIM up on the shoulder joint. Since we are only allowed 4 CIMs this year, is there a Banebot CIMulator driving one of the wheels?

It is a little hard to make out the gripper against the background of the blue bumpers. I don't make out any rollers. Best I can tell it is a pinch mechanism with one side of the pinchers inserted into the center of the tube.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the diamond plate. I wish we had the weight to put diamond plate up the sides of our A frame...

Luckily, the issue with 5 CIMs on this robot is an easy fix. Install the 2011 FP in an AM Planetary and use it on your arm.
