We are still a little rough around the edges but we hope to get things ironed out and put up some high scores this season.

It is amazing what refinement, driver stick time, and some quality coding time can do for a robot.

Time will tell...

Cheers,
Dr. Joe J.

P.S. Oh yeah, here is the video (http://youtu.be/kokq6fgOOP4). JJ

That is one of the coolest and craziest robots I've seen yet.
How does it fit in transportation configuration?

Now that's an intense-looking machine! I look forward to competing with you guys this weekend!

Curious... with a name like scorpion, I visualized the fantastic arm, but with the ability to 'sting' in front by placing onto a stack it's holding/placing... does it?

Awesome robot, I was the creepy college kid that stood in the doorway and watched for a while a week or two ago and I have been waiting to see what that would become!

Arm (Stinger) just folds into the box.

Front two wheel modules fold back to be next to the rear.

Front fork pivots down

"Getters" (a.k.a. the wheels on spring loaded arms that get the totes) are removeable.


It is going to be a mad dash to make it in 60 seconds but we can do it.

Good Job Joe! I can't want to see at Dartmouth.
