At 1:45, you can see the white pieces near the pivot axle at action.

More like 1:38. That allows us to make the truss lob and layup shots shown right after the shift.

Great Job!....But, something tells me that "Tempest" will not fit in a teapot.

Good Luck!

I was re-watching the video and only now just noticed the other robot cameo in the video.

A sneak peek of Beta? :)

Think of it as an unofficial, not so intentional teaser ;)

Love it. Epic music too!

I think the song is awesome as well. Just realized that the name of the song is "Black Sun". Very clever MORT, very clever indeed.

Can't wait to see this beast compete in person!

I'd love to say it was planned that way...

I actually had to go back and check. I had thought it was skull-shaped.

Well to be fair our logo IS a pirate.

Also, after watching some of the other reveals, I really wish we had the time to stick on LED's for the video :rolleyes:

Good job, guys. Looks really solid.
Looking forward to playing with you at Chestnut Hill

Here's a sneak peak of the tread pattern we're using.

How much extra traction do you get from that as compared to normal colsons?

What machining process did you use to cut those? Did you freeze the wheels first? What kind of performance gains have you seen from that? Did you try any other tread patterns?

Link07 - We don't have exact numbers, but the traction was much higher than normal colsons. If you are planning on getting into pushing matches, I would recommend them. ;)

Lil' Lavery - We simply took them to a band saw and put cuts in them. Much higher traction gained from simple 5 minutes of work. We are planning on trying out different patterns, but the current design should be significantly better than normal colsons. :D
