A joke robot made by a few of the 2022-2023 3lb mentors. There hadn't been a drum spinner in the 3lb program for the past 2 years and we thought it would be really funny to have a literal bus as a weapon so here we are. Not counting the CNC work for the bus the rest of the robot was completed within 3-4 days (albeit spread out across several months).

Design Summary
Busi is a box shaped drum spinner where the chassis is made of strips of HDPE fastened together using interior nut strips.
Problems
- Weapon
- It didn't work because of a single broken motor phase so we didn't know the motor was broken until we actually tested it under load
- Chassis
- Don't tap HDPE, who knew?
- Drive
- Pinions fell off because they weren't soldered very well
Good aspects
- Weapon
- Bus
- Chassis
- It was pretty durable tho
Changes/Improvements
Maybe like use functional parts

Design Summary
After donating the only functional bus to Todd as a treat, the weapon was replaced with a bootleg Fingertech beater bar milled out in like a hour and a half. That's pretty much it but not having the bus is a drastic enough change that I felt like it warranted a different version name.
Problems
- Weapon
- Belt still a little loose, honestly don't know why it was so wrong from the belt calculators something must have been cut out very poorly
- Drive
- Very laggy for some reason, could be ESCs or the garbage gearboxes
Good aspects
It work
Changes/Improvements
Get a new bus
