Looks like a cool idea, but how will you make sure this stays under the 400lbs limit (if using the FedEx FIRST agreement). and where would this be going in your pits? it seems like it would be a little big for you to have an space in your pits

It is already build, and is all aluminum under 200 pounds + robot under 80 pounds because we are using carbon fiber this year is way under 400 pounds. And sizes is according to pit size.

TeamDrift4091Yes is small and our shooter was build using small wheels and bag motors, we are not picking Frisbees from floor and our 30 point climbing mechanism is using winches.

Your robot is under 80 lbs this year? I'm not saying that's impossible, but as we weighed it out, the controls alone are about ~50lbs so that's one small robot.

What do you intend to use all the dead space behind it for?

stundt1Remember the weight of the bumpers. assuming you will be storing them in there.

TeamDrift4091that does not count in the robot weight.
