Re: Your favorite robot of all time?
233 in 2011 was probably the most influential robot to me. The sheer elegance of that robot is something I still try to emulate this day.

Re: Drivers station glass

Re: pic: Team 1305's second robot.
What's the weight as pictured?

Team 1538's 2011 robot (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/36685). My favorite machine by far. Incredibly clean and simple.
