Great job! It's very interesting how you manage your CG.

Very Awesome! This is the one of the most professional designs I have seen successfully implemented on a robot this year. I love the CG shifter and how efficient the entire process is. Good Luck this year.

Excellent work. Great Problem Solving. CG management impressive.

Impressive

That is really quite innovative...It's the same theory from last year of putting the battery on a lead screw, but applied to the whole robot. Brilliant.

My favorite climber idea and implementation I've seen so far this year. Nice work guys. Should be a clear pick in many elimination alliances.

:ahh: that is hands down the coolest climber I've seen so far! Something tells me this isn't the last we'll see from 3007 this season. Great job and good luck in 2013.

It seems you can save time in software/programming by shifting CG as the robot climbs, instead of waiting?

Very nice, elegant climb.

[Drayn007]

it has to stay all the way forward until the bumpers clear the bar, then we are able to start tilting back. towards the center. Otherwise the hook slips and the robot crashes. we know from experience. we have started to practice tilting back while climbing up, just need more practice once we get to our regional.

Now a real question is what should we do for the other minute? we are heavier so should we play defense, or just make sure our climb is good. any thoughts would be appreciated!
