Best Robot
I was just wondering what do people think the best robot is this year? I was at the WPI Regional and definitely the best Robot there was team 40's, they could hang two logos and had a first place minibot almost every time.

Re: Best Robot
defintly 1114, no question about it. 3 logos, 1 second minibot, .6 sec from ground to top peg, so far there's no beating that. unless they're the only team on their alliance and you have 3 scoring machines.

Re: Best Robot
Technically the best robot is 148.
Best minibot and robot is 1114. |
Re: Best Robot
Around the top level, a lot of the robots have about the same capabilities. I believe that 1114 is no outlier this year, and that teams like 111 and 254 have robots that are just as good. What it comes down to at the high level is having a consistent and effective autonomous, very good, well practiced drivers, and grand strategy. There really isn't a robot this year that can dominate all others, and there is no clear winner, despite what you 1114-hypers like to believe every year. I do believe that 1114's ability to score two Ubertubes in autonomous is a huge advantage for them, along with the other teams who can do the same, but that just means they have good programmers, not a robot that's better than everyone else's.

Re: Best Robot
I'm going to have to say 40. They know how to run a match, and an alliance.

Re: Best Robot
Here's looking at it by OPR (these are just selected teams, I haven't run it for every regional)
1114 @ PIT: 62 111 @ WI: 58 33 @ Kettering: 56 148 @ STX: 56 987 @ SD: 55 217 @ FLR: 54 2056 @ FLR: 52 254 @ SD: 49 40 @ WPI: 40 It's not a perfect measurement (different regionals, different weeks, ignores eliminations), but it gives a nice mathematical ranking and correlates nicely with all the robots mentioned so far in the thread. Imagine if 111 had a double-tube autonomous... |
Re: Best Robot
The question is, "Which team has the best robot?". I see a lot of people answering what the best team is. So, since everybody is saying who the best team is, I might as well say who I think the best team(s) is/are.
I say that every team that competes in FIRST is the best team!!!! Everybody I've known has either benefitted from being in FIRST, or benefitted from somebody who has been in FIRST. Unlike every other sport out there, people in FIRST aspire to help people, help their community, and change the world. In FIRST, we practice Gracious Professionalism™, and make sure others do the same. If it weren't for people in FIRST, then I don't know how half of my friends would spend their lives. People in FIRST tell others about FIRST, so that one day they can tell other people about FIRST. Because of this, I think every team is the best team. |

I decided to just run it for all regionals. So here are the top 25 OPRs done so far. If a team is there twice, it means they've done two regionals and performed strongly at both (or my script was messed up, which it was. If a team is there twice with the same OPR, it means I double-counted them)
