Re: pic: hay, thats not a tower!
No, I meant traffic signals. Just make the arm a bit taller and you could hang out with the traffic lights which are probably distant relatives of FRC robots.

Re: CURIE!!!!!!!!!!!!
i'm about to watch 469 again, and with their robot performing like it is, it'll be very difficult to stop them. Good luck to everyone.

Re: Brakes
I mean something that is on your robot that makes you less suceptible to pushing. I have heard that 25 has them, and i'm sure other teams do as well. So, I was just asking for some details.

Brakes
Does your robot have brakes? If so, how well do they work? How did you design them and how did you implement them?
