I was wondering what modifications teams have made especially for battlecry?
151 has revised our current wheels, adding more traction, and making a new keyway.
we also have made a tether for battlecry.

just wanna know what my fellow first teams are doing

Ooh a taboo move maybe!!! The Battle cry rules say to follow all FIRST competition rules... Does that include not doing any changes from competition to competition??? We'lll see on Saturday when we get there!!!!

As for us I think we remade a tranny!!! Darn memorial day parade!! LOL

the battlecry page also says that they are aware that some teams have made modifications, but they only expect that the robot is still "up to code" and competition acceptable;)

that would require putting lexan on it. cause lexan is bulletproof

not quite, it depends on how thick the lexan is, we have some 3" thick lexan lying around somewhere, but we're not using that. that was just a figure of speech but who knows? it might be bullet proof!
