Re: 2008 Game- Overdrive
Hey, my team has some questions. If you have two RoboCoaches, does that second RoboCoach need to come from another team? They had that on the red alliance and they had two Coaches...Can someone help us out? Thanks and Happy FIRST Season!:)

Re: 2008 Game- Overdrive
Here's a question... If the intent of the last portion of the match is to get the trackball onto the overpass and as I have currently read the rules(may have missed something) then what if I were to try to put my red trackball onto the overpass in the blue homestretch... "<G36> HOME STRETCH Height Restriction – ROBOTS in the HOME STRETCH of the opposing
ALLIANCE can not be more than 6 feet tall. A PENALTY will be assigned for each infraction." If you cannot be more than 6' tall at this point and the over pass is 6.5' tall then how are you going to accomplish this since you cannot go backwards on the track to try to put the trackball up? |

permitted to provide external stimuli to the ROBOT from either of the two ALLIANCE ROBOCOACH STATIONS. There is one ROBOCOACH per TEAM. p.s. sorry for the double post |

I was reading the rules for the new game(arena) and it mentioned a 1/2" to 1" bump, does anybody know any more about this? Thank You.

Re: 2008 Game- Overdrive
Sorry about that :(
Here's the KOP checklist (attached to this post) EDIT: I have been informed that those mirroring the manual last year were asked to take it down. After being informed of this I have decided to take down my mirrors before being asked. Quote:

Re: 2008 Game- Overdrive
The trackballs won't even come close to fitting through a standard door when inflated. (40 inch ball, 30 inch door) That's going to be annoying in a hurry.

WHERE ARE THE CIM'S!!!:confused: :eek: ARE THEY SERIOUS IN NOT GIVING US CIM'S Can you use ones from last year or can you only use the motors that they give us this year?:ahh: |
Re: 2008 Game- Overdrive
I got the manual today
i like this seasons game i feel it is easier in the most part other than incorporating the infared and the remotes will be a challenge and also teams that have always taken the defensive aspect will have o change as this is a primarily offensive game |
Re: 2008 Game- Overdrive
Wow this year's games looks pretty easy at first glance.
Drive in circles and earn points. When you get to know the details, though, it doesn't look that simple anymore. How long does a bot have to stay at the same place for judges to consider it as blocking ? Can't wait to find out whether this turns to be purely a race game or something more complex.:eek: |
