Viper Drive is honored and ready to compete for the Carver Division Title. Good luck to all the teams and we look forward to being part of the alliance.

Re: 2016 Carver Subdivision
 

Here's a short highlight video that I threw together for 4607. I'm pumped that we get to compete with so many high class teams. I'm really looking forward to talking with many of you while I'm inspecting.

Highlight Video

A little bit about 4607:
- Low Bar Capable
- Max height blocker + we can reach 15" outside our frame perimeter to block
- We have our best driver (and drive team) in team history
- Robust robot, the only thing we've had break has been our climbing hook, but the issue has since been fixed
- Cross in Autonomous, working on scoring
- High Goal/Low Goal capable
- ~9 second climb from the time we reach the batter (improvements for the climber to be implemented at champs)

5870 ready to represent Canada and tear it up!

Re: 2016 Carver Subdivision
 

FRC 1086 Blue Cheese is packed and ready to roll.

Re: 2016 Carver Subdivision
 

228 will be there! I'll get a recent picture up after work.

Some stuff about us:

• Crosses all defenses quickly (except drawbridge, and the moat is a bit sketch)
• Huge utility arm is a piece of lexan away from being an articulated shot blocker
• Flywheel shooter with articulated hood can score high around the batter (outer works is... in the works)
• Drop down intake and experienced drivers make us good at starving balls from the field
• Like everyone else, we're working on a hanging mechanism
• >10 lbs to work with even before weight reduction techniques

We had a pretty good season this year, winning the Rhode Island District Event by playing smart and getting lucky, so hopefully we can continue that on Carver.

very nice video, lots of capability. Good luck in St Louis

Re: 2016 Carver Subdivision
 

4451 has packed up our garage and is ready play in the Carver division!

Here's a few robot features we've used this season:
- External ball intake
- Internal 2 wheel / 2 angle shooter with speed control for multiple high goal distances
- Camera aiming
- 10 wheel single speed drive train
- Cross all defenses solo except Category C
- Gyro assisted steering for crossing defenses
- Low bar autonomous with high goal shot
We've made a few modifications to add a bit more variety for our alliances.
- Added batter shot and outer works shot
- Added autonomous crossing and shooting for defense positions 2 through 5

See you Wednesday.

I believe in the underdog! Here's to all the underdogs! Cinderellas too! They make for great stories when the upset the predictions! Cheers to a great divisional competition!

Re: 2016 Carver Subdivision
 

Team 360 is prepared for the fierce competition to come. We wish all the best of luck.

I think our bot best speaks for itself when you see it in person. We do what we do, and we do it well. Infer what you will.

Go Carver

Re: 2016 Carver Subdivision
 

Thanks that seems to fit our little rookie team VIKotics 5920. We had hoped to make the PNW Championship and now we are at the BIG DANCE. Excited to play and learn from everyone on Carver.

5822 is excited and ready to compete

Re: 2016 Carver Subdivision
 

I'm honored by your confidence in our ability to be effective at not playing. :p

Or did you just want another MN team on Einstein...

Re: 2016 Carver Subdivision
 

Another prediction: A majority of the 4th robots on playoff alliances will see some playing time. I'd love to see another Minnesota robot on Einstein! I'd especially love for that robot to come from Carver :cool:
