Re: Team Update #5

Well now they finally have a clearly labeled list of allowed parts, so no more arguments about hinges for me on CD! btw, anyone involved in that, I do apologize that I overreacted. I actually rebuilt my minibot from scratch and it uses all legal parts now (and I'm sure of it).

I'm still scratching my head... we got an RS775-18 in the KOP! It seems Banebots and FIRST can't get their stories straight.

Haha, last year we very nearly got busted in Florida for that. Lucky for us we had some plastic strips that were just longer than the bolt heads that became our "frame perimeter". I'm glad we don't have to worry about that sort of thing this year. Means less time spent countersinking and more time troubleshooting.

Yup. We were waiting for this answer too. We were thinking of highlighting a different team sponsor each match. An interchangeable sign that says "This match brought to you by.... Insert Sponsor Here"

Read the actual text of the update. Both are allowed (12v or 18v, the 18v is more powerful even at 12v).

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 08:19.
