Problems
- Gyroscopic effect/weapon placement (weapon was too far forward for wheels to counter, bot was too thin to resist gyroscopic lift)
- Weapon mount caved in
- Strength of chassis
- Major issue: Ramp is too steep (23 degrees)
Good aspects
- Weapon power
- Zippy drive
- Looks snazzy
Changes/Improvements
- Wheel/Weapon location
- Rounder chassis to avoid stress points
- Wedge should be a lower angle and should not span the entire robot's width. (two prongs beside the weapon work better)
