Re: Team 254 Presents: Skyfire
Looks like the result of 254 2006 and 254 2009 having a night of passion.

Can't believe it's been 4 weeks of competition season and we are seeing the poofs for the first time. An amazing robot as usual.

Re: Team 254 Presents: Skyfire
The conveyor system reminds me of the one used by 1747 and 1646 in 2009... the only differences were which direction the shooter was facing and that they were based on wide, not narrow chassis.

IIRC 254's 2009 bot also had a similar system.

Looks like a slick design...

We originally had 6 motor drive, but have since pulled the 550s and reallocated them to other places.

Re: Team 254 Presents: Skyfire
This is about the sleekest robot I've ever seen. (Well, barring 254/968's 2008 robots.) Good luck at SVR and Central Valley!

I too wonder about the location of the camera on this robot.

Re: Team 254 Presents: Skyfire
If Pat, Tom, and the rest of the 254 crew is alright with it, I do have video of Skyfire and Encore from a few weekends ago.

If you guys have a reveal video in the works, I'll save it.
