For now the robot name is //unknown

On a side note as a team mentor, I am so proud of my kids and the bot' they made. No fancy engineers or machines, just kids using their skills to make one sweet robot. :)

This phenomenon is caused by almost every team posting their picture at the same time, and people being overwhelmed and underinquisitive. Also, your design is very straightforward. It looks solid, I like it.

Looks great. I like the turret design.
How much weight do you have above the base? Will it tip over?
Good luck this year.

Thanks for the responses, Lets see what i answer here.

Base weight is rougly ~50 pounds if i remember correctly. We are stable, since alot of the turret weight is either right above the axis, or behind it.

The only place we seem to have a problem with tipping is the ramp, but we have an idea on how we might fix that at regionals.
