			Inertial-v4 will compete at NHRL Feburary 2026

			<u>What went wrong with v3?</u>

			If you watch the fights with Inertial-v3 you'll see that they're both quite disappointing, the bot would just seemingly stop moving and stop spinning.

			This was due to two issues

			# The clearance between the shell and the shufflers was basically zero, which meant any instability (from hits for example) would lead to the shell clipping the shufflers, leading to the shufflers melting and jamming up
			# The weapon motors drove the center gear via plastic 3D printed gears. These would consistently melt and cause the weapon to fail

			So v4 aims to address these two main issues in a minor design pass. Most of the DNA of v3 is good (I think?) so I want to give it a proper shot to perform by fixing these two glaring issues. This is more of a v3.5 than a v4.

			<u>Changes</u>

			* Center gears replaced with metal 3D printed aluminum. Pinions replaced with press-fit 3D printed aluminum
			* The entire shell is bumped upwards by a good amount, increasing the clearance to an acceptable amount
			* A simple housing was printed to keep the shufflers in place

			So overall, a very minor design pass, v5 will be a much more major design overhaul to address the new and exciting issues that v4 will hopefully uncover.
