547 "FOWL PLAY" Pictures - Strong, Reliable
 

This year our strategy was to build a 2 goal gripper "mule". Named somewhat after the school mascot, the Falcon, we call it FOWL PLAY.

WINNER: Delphi "Driving Tomorrow's Technology" Award at KSC Regional 2002

We have 4 motors (atwood and bosch) with 4 wheel drive. Our wheels are cleated with aluminum C channel. Our goal grippers are pneumatic - fast to grab a goal and releasable if needed.
