It looks nice, but it also looks like someone is going to be sitting up making some holes for quite a while, if you lack a plasma cutter :-).

Seriously, it looks nice and light, while maintaining strength. I like it.

Wow. It looks really good!

I'm a bit confused by the looks of that manipulator. How does it work?

I'm 5 ft 7 in tall and I weigh only 105 pounds. Last year our team was discussion shoving me in the shipping crate, giving me a 5 week supply of carrots and having me drill holes in our AIM HIGH bot.

Wow.. this is about as early as I have seen a full CAD drawing up here. I wonder if we will see more teams posting theirs now that the ice has been broken :p. That looks like a solid design there, don't know how well it will drive with a big ramp hanging off the side...

Wow. I really like your guy's Octagonal frame. Does anyone have Inventor drawings of one of those? I've been interested in getting a closer look to see how our team might go about building something after that style.

Looks like a great bot!

We don't have a plasma cutter but we have a Very helpful sponsor of B.T.I. to allow us to borrow the water jet for a bit.

the shape and the drivetrain and the mast is a battle hardened and proven reliable design. i improved on some of the shortcomings of that drivetrain and made it significantly lighter. If you have something that works then you're probably doing something right

Looking forward to see it in action at Florida regional.

last year our team discussed using freshmen as our robot, as some of them fit in the size requirements
