I do have one question for the group.

When your mechanism tilts your robot to grab onto the corner pole aren't your bumpers going out of the zone, does the pole make that point moot? Have you asked GDC?

I guess that's three questions :)

There were teams that did this last year to get on the bridge, are the bumper zone rules different than last year?

I love the notch in the climbing wheel to get over the corner...

Hope I get to see this thing up close in St. Louis this year.

Don't they just have to touch the corner with the climbing wheel before tilting back?

Excellent robot, I'll be glued to the webcasts!

Amazing robot as always! Can't wait to see it in action at Lone Star and SVR!

Among all the phenomenal engineering, I may have been even more awed by the "shooting lights," shown at times like 0:57 and 1:36... so sweet!

Bumper rules are all relative to your robot sitting on a flat floor.


Also, can the uploaded make the video available on mobile? I'd love to show people this on my phone

Simply outstanding. I love it when teams are able to pull off what conventional thinking has defined as "impossible". (Think 71-2001, 71-2002, 469-2010)

Unrelated, a huge amount respect goes out to your videographers, that was some beautiful cinematography. (Also, the take down of the helicopter was almost as good as the robot flying through the alliance station in 2010)

On a side note about the little helicopter getting picked off : I think IRI has found their new add on! Any team that picks off the little golden helicopter during a match get 50 extra points! It's like the Golden Snitch for a FIRST competiton!

Now that's a cool idea.

Also: I'm disappointed... The shooting runner lights that track the frisbee would be even cooler if they were tri-color and identified the color of the frisbee passing through.

The way you guys do integration is exhibit A of modern technological advancement. I would love to be a part of that team and/or just watch it work. Your lead is my hero and I'm sure they can't wait to put one of these together each year. I've been under the assumption government systems would prohibit this kind of efficiency and effectiveness. But if this is NASA's team uninhibited I'm a big believer in you guys. Rock on, and go NASA peeps!

Oh, also, I didn't notice if it picked up an upside down frisbee, and shot it upside down. Can it do that (or flip the frisbees it picks up) too?

And their climbing doesn't seem to be blazing fast, either. That being said, the best thing about this robot is that it does everything very well. For those worried about facing 118, the matches are only 2:15 seconds long so you may not have to face everything 118 can do. An alliance with a better dedicated shooter and a better dedicated climber, has a legit chance. Although, 118's amazing wide range of capibilities give it a scary amount of strategic flexibility in a 3 match elimination round.

Awesome robot and an even better video. Thank you for continuing to inspire us all.

I had to watch the video again and I love the wheel on how you climb up.

Epic Video. Perhaps the best all around robot I have ever seen in my years in FIRST. Funny I actually thought about using this song in our reveal video a few months ago.

That is so cool how the hopper moves up from the intake to the shooter as seen at 0:23 in the video.
