Team 2502 wishes to present our robot this year. It's a definite improvement from last year without any manipulator. We had about 20 kids working throughout, about 5 of them very dedicated with about 5 mentors on board. Students were the only ones doing hard cranking and with the exception of the last minute gear box crisis, we are just very happy how the robot turned out to be.

I compiled some videos and photos from the whole season: http://vimeo.com/3233921

Looks like we'll be about a pound underweight, with more things to potentially remove if the FIRST scale says that we are overweight.

Good luck! And wish us good luck as well!

Thanks,
Keehun

How much does it weigh in at?

I think the last time we weighed it in was almost exactly at 120 pounds. Our scales tend to overshoot the weights, so we're banking on the safe side of error, but we have couple things to remove (but keeping on for now) if we do have a weight problem

Not so much overshoot as fluctuate

(we use forceplates hooked up to a labpro and they constantly fluctuate a few pounds with a robot on them)
