Kickoffs & Robot in 3 Days

Blog Date: Wednesday, January 9, 2013 - 16:26

Kickoffs

Last Saturday, a record 83 FRC Kickoffs took place simultaneously around the world. A big thanks to our Kickoff Coordinators and all the other volunteers who made them happen! You are fine examples of one of the greatest strengths in FIRST – our volunteers.


Robot in 3 Days

Have you seen this? A robot built in 3 days capable of playing ULTIMATE ASCENT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bfyzb...ature=youtu.be

Congratulations to the build team and the sponsors! While the robot isn’t ‘exactly’ legal for FRC competition, it’s amazing to see what can be done in such a short time when folks put their minds to it – and that disc shooter is sweet.


I’ll blog again soon.

Wow, another huge thumbs up for Robot in 3 Days! Amazing job guys!
*What isn't 'exactly' legal about it?

They didn't use the FRC control system.

They didn't use a cRIO control system, and opted for a simpler system instead. They mentioned it in one of their videos.
