team 180? 183?
 

okay this was my first year and it was amazing!


when team 1557 first started in 2005 there was another team i believe it was 180 or 183 it was not SPAM ill have to look on the robot to be sure but the first year they gave us a robot that was used for the game where the robot had to hang from a bar i was told by a mentor that that was the last year they were a team.

now i think they were from orange county but they have since vaporized off the radar i cant find anything about them could some please tell me what this team was or is

Re: team 180? 183?
 

SPAM is 180, so it isn't 180. 183 is not in CD-Media, TBA, or FIRSTWiki. They may never have existed, or may just have disintegrated.

It may be 186. They were from Florida, and are no longer around, according to TBA.

Here are pics of their team from '03 and '02.

Eh, this was just from looking around the above mentioned sites and this site. I certainly wasn't around in 2004 or 2005, but I still hope my investigative work helps. Maybe some of the more veteran members (esp. veterans from florida) will be more knowledgeable.

Good luck in searching!

it might have been 183 or 138 ill have to check the robot on thursday

Re: team 180? 183?
 

183 was from Texas and has not competed in some time.
138 is from New Hampshire and still competes.

Re: team 180? 183?
 

Maybe you can post a picture of the robot and people can try to recognize them that way.

Based on what you said, the robot is either from 2004 (likely) or 2000 (less likely).

Re: team 180? 183?
 

186 was the Gateway Alliance, which last competed in an FRC regional at the 2004 Palmetto Regional. Perhaps that's who you're thinking of?

Re: team 180? 183?
 

186 was from Lake Buena Vista and did not compete after 2004.

edit<> its really small i dont know what happened

Re: team 180? 183?
 

1083, The Emoticons? Not sure where in Florida they were from. The robot in the picture doesn't look like theirs though, but I can't really tell. I know at least one of their mentors now works with 1902, Exploding Bacon.

Re: team 180? 183?
 

It wasn't them. Their 04 robot was a collector only. Didn't hang.

Believe they were from Orlando.

[edit] he never said their robot hung. Just that it was the game where robots hung. Coulda been 1083.

Re: team 180? 183?
 

As far as my memory serves, I believe it is team 186's 2004 robot.

Re: team 180? 183?
 

As the guy who did the rankings at Robot Rodeo that year (in a strange-smelling back room with Gary Dillard using a white board), I can say with certainty that 1083 (Team Emoticons) competed with their own robot. They were also somehow shorted a match in all the ZOMG-the-field-broke scheduling, but such is the peril of being the host team.

Re: team 180? 183?
 

okay i dont think its 1083

i think its 183 i have a partial side picture if you zoom you can see a 3 or a 6 following an 8


we call it the disney bot because they were only sponsered by disney

they did hang from the bar attached to the pvc is a length of cable wich is connected to a very sweet looking grappling hook

Re: team 180? 183?
 

That being said I suspect it is 1068 they were sponsored by Disney and only existed 2003-2005 from Orlando, FL

Re: team 180? 183?
 

it is not team 1083 it does not have omniwheels



it could still be 1068 or something else
