Re: [NEFRIST] Boston District Event
Thanks for the playlist Jay. Team 1768 was unbelievably excited to be the #1 pick by 1058. The finals matches were some of the best I've ever been a part of.

Re: Flipping Rule

Re: Flipping Rule
Based on this (https://youtu.be/xJpOMLC5OLI) video, that's exactly what happened.

Re: Predictions Week 7: District Championships
When I saw the dumbbells strapped on to your robot, I wondered why there wasn't some sort of can-grabbing mechanism. Looking forward to seeing it!

Re: Rule clarification (robot length)
The rule states playing configuration when giving dimensions. If you read the glossary for playing configuration, it states this is dynamic and can change through the match. My suggestion? Don't...

Re: [FRC Blog] Einstein Report Released
This has been my thinking as well. I don't think I could have worded it any better. My question is, was the Einstein incident the first and only time this person had purposely sabotaged a team?

Re: getting 8th graders interested in FIRST
An easy way to fill some time, and get students inspired, is showing videos. The anticipated teasers from years past, previous matches with your own commentary, etc.

Re: Mechanum Wheel Sizes
Quoting this again, because it doesn't get any easier.
Use the kitbot frame. Figuring out a suspension and anything else can come after. My focus would be first to make it work.
