Amen!

Blacksmith looked sick though.

So this is basically pre-2006 FRC, right? no bumpers, same people, same carnage

I had the opportunity to hang with Paul Ventimiglia (did I spell that right?) a couple weeks ago at WPI. He brought Bite Force 1.0 and 2.0 as part of the display for Touch Tomorrow and the NASA Centennial Challenge. Paul did not tell, I didn't even ask, but even though 2.0 took a couple good hits, it remained in fairly good shape, throw a battery in it and drive. My guess is we have a repeat Champ. (Or at least into the finals)

Unless he got flipped out or got out from a judge call.

Bite Force. Cool team, awesome robot, also neat seeing people that I've met (aka Cory) on TV.

I really wasn't sure who to pick in the Overhaul vs. Printer match this week, but you had to go and ruin it :mad:

Behind the Scenes videos are going up on Tested here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sf9GrRkVm5k
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUe4AujjBVo

Also, (for me at least) a reveal of one of the judges this season! Also FIRST gets a mention towards the beginning of the video.

I saw those! Tested should do segments on FIRST competitions.

Anyone else catch the BattleCry15 shirt in the stands on last nights episode (~6mins in)?

A little shout out to the best off season event in NE!

Don't know if anyone else read the blog posts from Charles on the Overhaul team, posted back in May. He outlines all the work they put into running brushless DC motors on their robot. It's a very detailed and interesting read: http://www.etotheipiplusone.net/?p=3985

Maybe something we'll see in the future of FRC.

There was the guy at the CTRE booth at worlds who had a prototype of a brushless motor controller.

Does anyone know all of the teams this season that have any sort of previous or current FIRST or VEX affiliation?

Kevin Leonard is on Ambush.
