Nice clean design..a very interesting looking bot. cant wait to see you houston.

Hmmm ... What's that little piece of lexan that sticks out of the front of the robot for? Might it be fore "desuctioning" a bot ...?

The little piece of lexan in the front is most likely for bulldozing?

Anyways great bot!

No no no, I'm talking about the little tiny piece sticking out ... not the whole part with the logo on in, the part sticking out below that.

Oh, nice bot, guys :)

perhaps that front section is hinged, and the piece sticking out is for getting under bins and fixing them

Great bot, looks like a killer tank!

Hm, mithinks the lexan is for pushing bots up. If it gets under you and they begin to go up the ramp, it will slight lift you by the time you get to the HDPE. This removes some of your traction and just gives them more. Won't be until they get on the HDPE and finally and have to push you down the ramp (much easier to do).

Um....
 
What about your light? Doesn't it need to be more, um, exposed?

Katie is talking about the attached image.

And yes, that light definitly needs more exposure that what it has. Unless it's in a 'down' state for going under the bar.

Rob Colatutto 27-02-2003 15:28

yeah, light seems really deep. they said you need to be showing 4 inches of it 99% of the time, that looks like about a half inch

why the heck are people soooooooo worried about the lights?? some people are making an issue over something that really isnt...

yangotang 27-02-2003 20:22

It was a FIRST rule that your light had to be at least 4 inches visible.

...or was it?

Josh Hambright 27-02-2003 20:40

well if u read the inspection sheet...first clearly stated the 4 inch rule on there, so i guesse they are making an issue out of it too.

*sigh* I guesse 461 will have to move our light from its pretty encloser out onto our front end cuz thats the only place that would be legal.

Chris 27-02-2003 21:27

I think after the first regional if it goes anything like what i've heard about the scrimmages, the light visiablity rules will become less strict, and FIRST will want us to burry them so they are protected more.
