Thanks for the kind words. While we frequently refer to many teams, including 1114, as good examples of how to run a quality team and build a competitive robot, make no mistake, this robot was designed originally, in-house, from the ground up, by the students of Team 696. This is the kind of result we get when I take a year off to do projects around the lab instead. I'm very proud of what the students have accomplished this year.

While not the "coolest" robot I've seen out of 696 (swerve represent), definitely the one that seems the most competitive out of the box. Can't wait to see it work!

Also, that's a lot of 775 pros. o.0

How do you pick up balls with that arrangement of wheels on your shooter?

Re: Team 696 Reveal 2016 - Banshee
 

My guess is intake from the "back" shoot from the "front" ;)

Re: Team 696 Reveal 2016 - Banshee
 

I love this robot, looks very clean and elegant as always. The arm/claw looks like an upgrade from 2011.

Can't wait to see Banshee this weekend. :)
