1625 Radical Redesign
 

I understand Team 1625 Winnovation has completely re-designed and re-built their robot, except for the chassis/drive train.
Apparently, they wanted to score more in autonomous, and found that their new autonomous mode was so good, they're just going to use it for the whole game.
I'll post more info as I get it.

Looking Toroid? Using autonomous mode for entire match? What sort of a joke is this?

Wait a second, I get it! This fella is beating us to the April Fool's punch by posting two days early. Good one!

Oh, and as for 1625's new design, I believe it looks something like this



I'm not sure it meets the bumper configuration rules!

I got ya covered.




...God I need a life.

Re: 1625 Radical Redesign
 

This just made my day...the bumpers could have been purple tie-dye though...then they really would have rocked.

Re: 1625 Radical Redesign
 

Hey, Andy, you sure that software to keep him inside the bumper perimeter and keep the trailer hitch in the right location works? You do that, I'll take care of the rover wheels...

Re: 1625 Radical Redesign
 

Rover wheel Segway walle?



I love it.


Edit: Jane, you are totally right!



Everything looks better with purple tie dye for the record.

Re: 1625 Radical Redesign
 

Something seems very off. Those don't look like Rover Wheels...

That's an ingenious camera design, for sure.

Re: 1625 Radical Redesign
 

OK guys, you got me!:D
I was hoping for another 24 hours to really milk this. Oh well!
I even have video of the upgrade, which was going to be a totally autonomous robot - namely, one of our team members riding around on the chassis, picking up moon rocks and throwing them into a trailer.
In any case : Happy April Fools' Day, from one of the biggest fools around!

A little birdie said that it was still March....



Now it has a red trailer... and team numbers.

Re: 1625 Radical Redesign

Don't forget the signal light Wall•E needs to pass inspection

Re: 1625 Radical Redesign
 

Don't Wall E's arms exceed the maximum dimensions at times?
