Re: pic: Group Picture

I have to admit, I love that picture. I think it's probably my second favorite group photo (coming in behind "ChiefDelphi in a Steak & Shake" from IRI last year)

Re: pic: 710 Hanging

Hmm, do you guys have enough height to do that though? Doesn't your arm just barely reach over the bar as it is? If you add a hook perpendicular, you might not have enough height above the bar to...

Re: pic: 710 Hanging

Hmm, I think if you simply made a different type hook... so that you could pull up with only connecting the one side, instead of relying on both... in case of shortness on time like that one match...

Very nice model, with a little more time and some texture detail... that will be a VERY awesome looking model for your animation. Great job!

Re: Stamp or PIC?

I think PICs are the best way to go. As was alread said, BASIC stamps are a pain in the butt when doing complex things. However, one thing I've noticed with the chip is that it's not very good with...

Re: Thoughts on the competiton balls

Well, just so you know... we pretty much had to redesign our entire release system. We modified it into a "zipper" system. The net actually opens with a big zipper. We had it working for our final...

Re: UCF regional 2004 update

Yea, I agree... it was really bugging me. Our robot turned into a punching bag pretty much because of it's catching ability, teams were ramming us really hard and broke quite a few things.
