The team is still hard at work but it sure has come along nicely.

Nice! It looks really clean and I love the LEDs. Any shooting video?

[Steven Sigley]

I personally didn't have any to include, but it shoots nicely including in autonomous.

Edit: Actually here's a video of our practice bot shooting in week 4:

darn I was close with the music :P

Interesting design. Did you focus mostly on human loading and a passive 10 point hang? The method of changing your angle is pretty sweet as well. How tall is the robot in starting configuration?

Killer paint job by the way.

I don't get to spend a TON of time with the team so I don't know the exact numbers on the height, however I do know the powder-coating has green and gold flakes in it with the black base color. The focus is indeed as you pointed out, fast and easy 10 point hang, along with a human loaded shooter. The drive system is also two speed for racing across the floor and lining up with the feeder station. We also hope to have all shooting be automatic with a PID combination of camera and potentiometer feedback on our arm.

Also the music is from Midnight Club 3. ;)

Team 701 killed it at Practice Day yesterday!!
There are a few videos of 701 in action being uploaded on to our YouTube page (http://www.youtube.com/team692).

Thanks! Unfortunately most of those videos depicted our robot while experiencing some technical difficulties lol. Still, the scrimmage was quite good to our robot and many others impressed as well, I saw many robots making shots and hanging on the first bar.

The music in the video makes our robot that much sexier
