Can it place balls at the end?

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

Indeed.:eek:

Words cannot describe what is going through my mind right now. It's just so amazing, for a lack of a better word. Great job!

Hmm, looks like you have everything our team thought would be key to this game, except for 2 functions but hey that's why you're on an alliance.

Very nice design, but you're missing one important thing: Your robot is still that ugly metallic aluminum silver.

Where's the color? :ahh:

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

I'm sure the pretty features will be added later.

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

That robot is awesome. I wouldn't want to be on the other side of the overpass when the ball comes flying over.

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

I agree, depending on where that ball hits robots will be falling. But on the plus side you can have really cool quotes like "Our tackballs will blot out the sun!!!" Very cool 118, looking forward to the championship.

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

We resemble that remark. We bought silver Cordura so our bumpers would match the rest of the robot.

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

If that track ball comes crashing into Exploding Bacon's robot there is literally going to be an Oink Oink BOOM!:yikes:

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

all i can say is wow. i am freaked out by how efficient the bot is. nice swively wheels:p

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

Great stuff 118! . . . now it comes down to execution. How does she perform in Hybrid mode?

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

Looking forward to seeing it in action!
Great job team!

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

HAHAHAHAHA I lol-ed!!

Awesome robot, had me smiling the entire vid.

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

Actually, if 118 is operating as they have in years past, that robot you see in the video won't see any color. That's their practice bot. Their real one is being made, with color, now. ;)

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

I think I'll have my share of stating the obvious. . .
Excellent robot - obviously a force to be reckoned with - playing defense on you guys would be interesting (that's a major understatement).

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 

i am almost positive that that has more than 4 motors
because at the 20sec mark, you can see that there is 4 cims at the corners of the tranny, and therefore those additional tensioners on the top and bottom of the motor pic must hold FP motors.
at nationals i heard them talking about a CVT tranny
i hope this is the case
cus that would be amazing. :ahh:
BTW, your robot is incredible.
