1114's HARPOONS
We were wondering what they were building over in the pits.
Regular speed: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzU...ew?usp=sharing Slowmo: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzU...ew?usp=sharing I don't know what speed that is at for the slowmo (all the guy coud tell me is that it's at 240fps) but I'm pretty sure it's at 1/8x speed or around there. I don't know if they're going to bother adding a mechanism to winch them back. 1114 x 148 might be enough to outstack any other 3 robots on any other field. |

Holy safety hazard batman, how did that get through safety inspection?
Edit: it's a joke people, they are just as safe as other canburglars. |

While I understand that this video has been circulating around, I don't think it would be respectful to post it without the explicit permission of 1114.

If a 1/8s bolt comes loose or a 1/8s pole comes loose, I doubt it'll really matter which one it is; both would be equally as dangerous. Maybe the pole more so just for the size of it. |

Will these interfere with 1114's landfill mining?

Re: 1114's HARPOONS
1114 is a class-act, so I don't doubt that it is safe. I'm actually wondering what safety measures are in place.
Also, I don't expect them to have to prove they are safe to me or CD, I'm just curious. |

If 1114 deploys their harpoons in eliminations, it's because they met the safety criteria of a very experienced and safety-conscious inspection team leader. |
Re: 1114's HARPOONS
I think I question was asked on the q&a before it closed asking about harpoons. Il look for the actual q&a but short story they said it was legal as long as it had a rope or something attached.

Im not sure. I wasnt there, but if they were doing it in the pits I cant imagine they were super worried about privacy. They certainly didnt ask the guy filming to stop, look away or go away. Reguardless, Im not going to lie that looks TERRIFYING. I hope that if they dont deploy them in auton that they have something very good to prevent them from firing unintentionally. A harpoon to the ref is not a good way to make friends on the fields :eek: |

Re: 1114's HARPOONS
I want to see how these end up being used come elims. if they reel in the cans thats fine, but if they dont. someone might bring across a souvenir with them when they pull the cans from the other side. Which may result in a red card under the right conditions for the harpoon user. Speculation.

It looks like team 900's new robot is ready to go... And I happen to know that it HAS passed inspection!

After 1114 broke in the second round of the semi's, 900 packed up the robot into the transport configuration... Think we'll see it in a few minutes?

Re: 1114's HARPOONS
My guess is that the Curie alliance knows that they're likely OK coming out of this match due to the lead they have on 1671/1678/118's average, but also know that the finals is against the same alliance that broke 1114's arm.
End of match edit: SHEEESH. It RTS is right, it will be super close on the averages. Scored edit: Ow. 1.6 points. |

Re: 1114's HARPOONS
It looked like they were going to use almost every match. They put it all back in transport config but than took it back out.
Can't wait to see an improved version at IRI! |
Re: 1114's HARPOONS
I was getting so excited to see them in action, and then my hopes were dashed.

Re: 1114's HARPOONS
As a home observer I'm more curious as to whether the harpoon platforms also winched the cans in, or if it was more of a "Noone uses these cans, you have to outstack us" nuclear option for finals?

Re: 1114's HARPOONS
There was an incorporated winch... But no way to remove the harpoons from the cans that I could see, short of brute force. I'm pretty sure it was a purely defensive live-action designed to ensure the other alliance did not get the cans and had to stack perfectly.
