Re: 2009 NASA/VCU Regional
 

our robot on 2363 has recived ALOT of modifications...based on our preformance at the nj regional we decided that our shooter/turret was not the best way to go so by adding a curved peice of metal to our shooter we transformed it into a dumper and our turret is stilll fully operational

this is a very difficult game

Re: 2009 NASA/VCU Regional
 

Goochland has been ready to go for 4 weeks. We can't wait to get on the field, errr... crater!

Re: 2009 NASA/VCU Regional
 

Its a field. It will feel good to be under some pressure at home again. DC felt like a garage compared to the Siegel Center.

Re: 2009 NASA/VCU Regional
 

haha...we've been ready to go for about a day, design revision wise...:yikes:

Re: 2009 NASA/VCU Regional
 

After hearing what you guys have been up to in the weeks since Ship has convinced me that we have to have a prototype (2 robots) next year to work on.

Re: 2009 NASA/VCU Regional
 

I agree; it seems like having two robots worked out very well for most teams.
We created a prototype base and hopper, but we did not have time to create the dumping mechanism.
Maybe next year our team will be able to create two working robots :cool:

On another note...

Where are you guys staying during VCU? I know we are at a hotel nearby, but is everyone staying at the same hotel (if so that's gonna be crowded).

Re: 2009 NASA/VCU Regional
 

it is deffinetly a big help...the down side is now we have a ton of stuff to change come thursday morning:eek:

1086 just drives there every day...luckily its only a 20-30min drive

Re: 2009 NASA/VCU Regional
 

Team 383 is already in the USA! Currently touring Washington, DC, driving to Richmond on Wednesday. :D

Re: 2009 NASA/VCU Regional
 

If you want to stretch your legs during along day in the stands, take a little walk and stop by the Lunacy simulator in Tech Row up on the concourse.

Bring a couple of friends and try for high score. Be one of the high scoring alliances and come back to compete in a play-off.
