We built our own trans so we won't have to deal with those infernal drill transmissions. We are also implementing "The Waddler", which will uber-increase our manuverability.

Our robot is being built using methods fairly new to our team, but it will me just the more robust. We will be sturdy, yet light enough to have more function than ever before.

For those of you out there who recall our game play in previous years (namely last :) ), stay tuned! You have just witnessed the beginning!!

Team 836's robot won't be as tough as B.O.B last year in that instead of using a 1/4'' drive plate we are going with a 3/16'' drive plate. but everything else will be the same tough as nails.

Funny one dave...I would go that far just yet.

Last year we used 80/20, and the frame itself was never touched, but our mechanism was a disaster. This year we have built the strongest bot that has ever come out of our school. We have the drive done, and we are working on the mechanism. I'm just happy becasue it does the most amazing donuts.

Week #6 is hear at last. And I'll be the first to say that im upset to see it go. and not upset at all. So As marking the begining of week #6 how far away are you from 100% completion / already driving / or both. Good Ol 522 is working on the magical design and my lips are sealed.

As far as doing donuts is concerned if thats what your team designed the robot to do ID worry if i were you j/k, otherwise any movement from a robot getting done is a sign of success.

How many teams are done / almost done / done doesn't exist in your teams vocabulary ????

Re: How roboust is your teams robot going to be?
 

According to our latest (2/15) progress report, we are roughly 70% complete. We are driving very well now, and have 2 of our 3 subsystems almost complete.

right now, if a strong breeze blew through our shop i doubt our robot would remain standing..
but hopefully it'll get stronger
