Build team makes progress with new chassis and motor control

We have exciting news for our team! In a team interview, Sam, one of our builders, talked about how we integrated control hubs and improved wheel base design for the new season. The team changed the wheels from being very stiff to ones with a taller design, that will enable the new robot to reach both the high and low baskets and hang rungs in this year's "Into the Deep" game. Our goal overall is to enhance the stability of the robot.
