Scary Bots
 
Hey people! If you have seen a scary bot or own a scary bot, please post a picture or a video of it here to let other people know! ANY SIGHTING IS IMPORTANT, SO THIS IS A MUST!

Here is one Scary Robot that I saw:

So cool, and yet so terrifying!


To be serious, I want to see some very scary bots, so thanks if you post a picture or video of one.
PLEASE GIVE CREDIT TO THE TEAM WHO FIRST TOOK THE PHOTO!!! PLEASE!!!

Note: By scary I mean so awesome that it is scary, not the kind that gives one nightmares.

Credit for photo goes to Team 3937. Photo first posted by Breakaway3937.

I think what you mean about this robot is that it is scary awesome! Can't wait to see it preform at Worlds!

My team had to play against 1114, 2056, and 2337 up at IRI, I mean that was pretty scary.

Re: Scary Bots
 
Our bot doesn't look scary until it drives. While it may appear 'tippy', the CG of our bot is just a few inches above the bumpers.

Our 6 wheel drive (6" diameter by 2" wide wheels with blue nitrile inclined belting) combined with our 2 3CIM ball shifters with ratios of 1:7 and 1:18.75 give us so much torque our robot can pop wheelies :ahh:

I did not mean scary as in bad. Just frightening

However, getting hit by the ball would probably literally kill you

Do you want to see something really scary?

Team 195, The CyberKnights, will be competing this weekend at the Southington District event.

Check out how it's targeting lights illuminate before the shot. Notice how it spins the ball in its grasp as it carries it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Sg4...tH3hUljz8wc_Vw
Great driving to elude defense.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fngz...tH3hUljz8wc_Vw
This was the only match that they lost all weekend, until the QuarterFinals.
An aberration that should be corrected this weekend.

A unique design that can shoot on the fly. A necessity to make shots in a game that defense is changing.

Massively powerful, and thus, scary. Nice find!

Scary: playing against 107 for three consecutive matches. There was no stopping them at Escanaba.

217 at Centerline had a shooter that shook the entire field when they shot.

230's "hammer bot" is a tad intimidating, to say the least. Their 2 ball autonomous is phenomenal. Props to them for winning the Groton District Event. I'm curious to see how they preform at the Southington District Event this coming weekend.

What? Our robot? Nah Howie is pretty cuddly!
Disclamer: Howie is short for Howitzer.
Disclamer 2: Howie shoots with almost 300 pounds of force, and has a 100T sprocket, so it is not very cuddly.

This is how you know when someone is in FRC, when they talk about cuddling with a 120 lbs robot that can fling a ball with 300 lbs of force!

On the practice field at Orlando, we had a few teams say that our robot sounds like a tank or a mortar firing. And we kick with 400+ lb spring force :p

I agree: if there's one scary robot I've seen in New England, it's 195.
Such speed and power.

Also, I think you have the wrong match where 195 lost-- that was match 15.

We were watcing New York Tech Valley and whenever we saw you guys do a shot we all threw our arms up and screamed. Like, there was an instance where you guys almost scored a goal from the loading zone and it was great.

Can confirm: Have spent many late nights shooting Howie. He is very cuddley when mech leaves so software can work

Software can never ever have the robot. That's how it works so well!

Re: Scary Bots
 
I had a team tell me today that my team's robot was scary for two reasons:

Good on it's own.

and our ball pickup makes noises you typically hear in the black room of a haunted house at 3:00 am.

I took both as compliments.

Now that was a hit. Looks like that Gif Bot lost its pants...or there was something under it all the way there...5 speed overdrive...sarted 2 fields over. Did they both actually live? Now we know where yesterdays rule came from...A ref's. true nightmare come true.

Me too, I think he was trying to link to email attachments or something.

But I saw that baby up close in Milwaukee, and it's really something.

2481 is my nomination for most "scary awesome" in 2014.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NEaVj4dT8s

They won in Wisconsin, with good reason.

I was about to mention them, you beat me to it! Their use of swerve, their fantastic pickup mechanism, and their accurate shooting made them by far my favorite robot at the Wisconsin regional.

Awww it has a gentle grasp but definitely don't mess with the shooter we actually shot it from the blue zone over the truss bounced it and it went straight in the top goal

Thanks for the props on our 2-ball auto. We have gotten it to a good solid place. Very proud of the programming students. :cool:

Don't be intimidated by the teeny, tiny sledge hammer. It's got a Hello Kitty sticker on it so it's perfectly safe. ::safety::

Of course, your shooter is much more intimidating especially when seen up close where you can hear it cocking for a shot. :ahh:

You think looking at their robot is scary? Try catching the balls they shoot in auton.

If 67's robot decided to eat you, it probably would've before you realized it wanted to. Most of there robots are like that.
