Well... They found one way to break the game...
Hoping that the same method doesn't also break the bank! ::ouch::

As a bonus feature, our robot can auto-aim towards the tower in the middle of the rough terrain!

And that class is how you strip gears. Any questions?

The one time that robot stays on its wheels it breaks stuff...

This is when FRC makes you crazy enough to believe breaking things is progress!

Blair has his Top Ten lists, but I'm cheap, so you'll have to settle for a Bottom 5.
5) The field broke.
4) The robot is stuck on a really easy defense, and it's a treaded robot.
3) At least one of the students is NOT wearing safety glasses (or even forehead protectors).
2) They're happy about the robot getting stuck on the broken field.
And the number one thing wrong with this picture is...

1) Nobody's giving the dude on the right a yellow card for being in the moat! Practice, people, practice!

Little did the mentor realize, as the camera took this picture the student was leaning in to line up the shot, leading to this unfortunate safety lapse:

Hah! The football team just breaks through a paper barrier! We're already up to plywood, working on steel!

Hey Kool Aid!

OHHHH YEAAAAAAAAH!

And that's how they named the robot Mr. Kool Aid.

The students on the robotics team did not understand that the manual did not mean to literally damage the defenses and capture the tower. They do say that engineering students tend to be quite weak at understanding the subtleties of language.

That's what they get for taking the cheap way out and not spending the several thousand dollars required to build an official field.

Ouch, man, just ripping us apart.:yikes: Just want to point a couple things out:

5) There's a reason why we call our previous driver Wreck-It Ryan.
4) When testing on the wood, different story. Anything can happen.
3) Bad part on us.
2) and they're not necessarily happy. This is that time when you've been trying something over and over again and you just laugh at how bad its getting!
