I was thinking that the square would be big enuf for a light sensor to see
it, like 4 inches square...
the 8 by 8 arena would be a long trip, specially since i was thinking about
having a zig-zag pattern and almost loops, i'll have a pic up tonite on my
'page (hopefully, have stag-and-doe to go to, dunno when i'll get home to
upload pics) as to what the course may look like.
if we use 4x4, we can have quick competitions (2 min and under, depends on
how fast 'bot is...)
if we have 8x8, we can make course that much bigger...
matters not to me...
