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.

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.

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.

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

A ROBOT is a HOSTBOT plus a MINIBOT

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.

Hmm, I haven't decided who the best is but 40 is definitely way up on my list! Scoring an average of 2-3 logos, double ubertube auton, and one of the fastest minibots.

To add to this list 2415 had an opr of 58 at peachtree

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)
Code:

67        64.1978
1114        62.9768
111        58.752
2054        58.5124
2415        57.7935
234        57.0967
33        56.7075
148        56.5229
1678        55.5372
987        55.1992
217        54.4144
2056        52.7503
217        52.6689
2512        49.8532
254        49.1796
456        48.4294
1023        48.3657
935        47.6648
1676        46.3775
2016        45.5644
1218        45.5229
876        44.9698
573        43.6522

Actually 67 has the highest with 64.1978. The Week 3 results will be out tonight at http://frctop25.com/ accompanied by the live broadcast revel at 10:30pm. 1114 has the top spot in both polls from W2.

Most of the OPR data is based on one regional per team. Without a full statistical analysis (blocking data, etc.) and more data, the uncertainty in the OPR rankings must be pretty big. My guess +/- 15 points. I agree with a prior post, no one robot is standing out in a big way.

Speaking of the FRC Top 25...

It's actually a more direct way to get the response, or submit your opinion. There are two polls, one expert and one not.
