1717 has to be one of the top 5 FRC robots this year, period. What an incredible day they have had.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

With 330 not that close behind. 1323 is close to 330 though.

1717 just has crazy range and flexibility around the whole field.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

Biggest congratulations EVER to Ranjit Chahal from 1323 for the WFFA. Much deserved bro! Your hard work and mentorship is amazing.

Insanely proud of you man, you have come a long way from since we first met :)

Also a huge congrats and round of applause to the Chair of CVR, Mr. Allan Hollman for creating such great students as RC!

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

HUGE CONGRATS to my close friend RC for the WFFA. Youngest ever to receive the award. RC, you totally deserve it.

Now go triple crown that regional. ;)

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

agreed! what a perfect robot

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

They're certainly making a case for it. Best part is where they're shooting from. The absolute corner of the key. It's amazing and leaves so much room for their partners to shoot from.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

I've been VERY impressed watching 1717. Their robot reminds me of a stealth fighter. Sneaking around the field, delivering a quick and accurate payload, then they're gone before you even realize. It would be a shame if that 63 point penalty match costs them the #1 seed.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

Their robot is an AMAZING machine and great to watch. Beautiful creation.

I believe that they are back to the number 1 spot as of now, just from a quick search on usfirst.org.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

They are, by 7 hybrid points. However, the #3 and #4 spots have yet to play their 8th match, while 1717 and 330 (#2) already played their 8th. The #6-#8 seeds also have a chance by the same token. In case of ties in QS, 1717 does hold the first tiebreaker, though.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

That final match.

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

I have to agree. 330 was immobile--blinking red light above the driver's station--after Hybrid. 1717 scores enough in the last few seconds to not only eliminate the deficit but negate a double balance while either 2102 or 1717 balances the bridge (unless 330 got moving suddenly), win by 11. That's got to be one of the best robots out there (not that you can't say that about the Penguineers every single year).

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

Team 3309 had an amazing time at CV. We had a great time working with 254 and 1323 and we learned so much from these legendary teams. We played some of the best matches I've ever seen.

Congratulations to 1717, 330, and 2102 for your outstanding work.

This was my last year on the team as a student and I was so glad to have had these experiences, thank you all!

Re: Central Valley Regnional
 

if someone could upload video from eliminations and post links here... that would be great :)

congratulations to teams 330, 1717, and 2102 you guys have great machines and i can't wait to see them up close at champs. congratulations to team 1266 for their chairman's award as well.

Specifically its part two of the video titled "semi finals."

Finals 1-2 was the best individual performance by a robot I have witnessed all year. Coming out of Autonomous the score was 18 - 18. In autonomous mode, Team 330 was able to score 1 ball in the top basket and 1717 made 2 of the 3 shots they took. Right afterwards, 330 was immobile.

Team 1717 went on to make 18/18 shots they took during teleop :eek: . The accuracy of this machine is what blows my mind. Of those 18 shots, 7 of them were in the last 30 seconds of the match.

In Finals 1-1, 1717 made 4/4 of Autonomous shots, and 12/12 teleop shots.

So of all the shots 1717 took in the Finals, they had a 97.2% shooting percentage (35/36).

1717 is not only the most accurate robot in FRC, 1717 is more accurate than any NBA player.
