In that case, I hope we have an alliance together at some point. Whether it be elims or quals.

Team 3539 is a landfill bot

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

Team 74 is happy to playing in Newton. I am glad to play in a division that isn't over run by michigan teams. I like to go to worlds and play with teams I don't get to play with all year.

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

Note: Newton lost a team and is now at a total of 75 (and is currently the smallest division).

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

Looks like we lost 3783.

Think they'll move someone from Archimedes, or will we stay with 75?

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

Looking at the range of teams I doubt they will move a team but you never know with FIRST

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

Did I see a tether wire to a robot in that video on the red alliance? If so what is the purpose of it and didn't it cause tangling problems with robots driving over it?

Just curious

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

The wires is 1756 tether to there slide. It is used to connect are robot to a slide. We have gone through extensive testing to find the best tether that is the least likely to get tangled.

Side note it looks like one of the video links are broken. Bellow are the correct links

1756 can do landfill. Put up 2 stack of 6 and a stack of 5

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

1756

Have you changed your tether since the last match you showed (the three stack)? It appeared that your partner got caught on it. Can you explain?
thanks!! You guys sure can stack...

How do you use your can grabbers? Do you have to stack without your ramp then?

We look forward to playing with you on Newton!!

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

It looks like they moved 2522 to Newton from Archimedes.

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

Who did they move?

Edit: Looks Like you updated your post.

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

Welcome to Newton, 2522!

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

It's great to see another Washington team coming to Newton
Welcome Royals!! We look forward to playing with you!!

:)

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

Can we get something together maybe a google doc of robot pics from every team in newton. Would help alot of teams out.


We cant wait to show off a few new upgrades.

Re: Newton Division 2015
 

Sorry about that one i forgot they got tangled in are tether. i modified the post above to be more correct. From what i remember they got tangled due to excessive turning on the tether and were the only one to get tangled at Midwest.

The can grabber can be used in Auto to grab 2 cans or during teleop to grab a single can.

During playoffs we gave the ramp away so that we could have the option to do auto can grabber. However we found are 3 tote auto to be worth more points due to are teammate having a great can grabber.

we can play without are ramp though. We have put up 2 stack of 6 and 1 stack of 5 from the land fill. I am pretty sure if we did it correctly we could put up 3 stack from the landfill.
