Re: How do I CAD wires?

2338 uses the Autodesk Harness Environment extensively, and it's hugely beneficial. The tutorials in the help menus are very helpful. I strongly recommend to any team with the manpower to dedicate to...

Re: Crazy idea to fight spam

This is a good idea. Maybe posters with less than 10 posts can't use links? Not sure what the limitations of vBulletin are but I know 2338 was able to do things like that with our phBB...

What is your favorite part of the FIRST experience?

This is a question asked of me while I was talking with another team about the possibility of me mentoring for them in the coming season. Here's my answer:

"I've forged connections with many other...

Re: Let's Talk About Your Team's Computers

Ours are all donated. Caterpillar is generous enough to give us ~6 pretty new, mid-grade workstation laptops, which are powerful enough to manage CAD assemblies. We then have a pile of ~10 laptops of...

Re: IRI Alliances

While I agree with you, I'd like to remind you that you come off the same way on a very regular basis. As much as I find it amusing when you tell off some high-and-mighty CDer, you rarely do it with...

Re: 6621 BIG Announcement!!

Coming out of hiding to post in the best thread CD has ever seen. Predicting that "bad lard" will be the esoteric CD meme of 2017.

Re: What teams have improved the most in the shortest amount of time?

I don't think there's any question 1678 gets the "most improved" award over the last 6 years or so.

If we're looking at the last 4 years, I would nominate 2338 and 2481. 2338 has gone from picking...

Re: Value & Credibility of 4th robots on an Alliance

ANECDOTE TIME
Last season, 2338 picked 234 as our 4th bot at IRI. Although 234's robot was never on the field during our elims run, their human player was an absolute monster. 234's HP played an...

Re: Convincing athlete to commit to robotics?

This. Our drive team includes members who quit Football and Cross-Country to get more involved in robotics. Some members have left for Tennis. It's up to the individual, not either team.

Re: IRI Alliances

I'll second that. After seeing them up close at IRI, I can tell 1086 is a great team with a great robot. Let's not forget that they also played a few matches while 120 was out of commission. I'll...

Re: Working with alliance partners

Same for us, mostly. At champs, we also started going around about 45-60 minutes before queue, asking partners if there was anything we could do to help them be ready for the match. This proved to be...

Re: IRI 2016 Predictions

I'll second that. If they somehow fall back in the rankings, they'll be a power pick for some lower-seeded alliance to make an awesome upset.

On the topic of awesome IRI upsets

Re: [FRC Blog] Radio Silence

I agree fully. The old routers were better than the current model in virtually every way. Sure, the size reduction was nice, but it would be so much better to go back to the old routers (or a similar...

Re: Team Documentation and Official Standards for... Stuff

I briefly considered replying by saying "holy cow!" but I decided that would be a misteak. This is really impressive. Although we have standards for typeface, this goes extremely in-depth.

Re: What do you do with a robot at the end of the season?

Depends on the robot. No remains of our 2008 and 2009 robots exist. Stripped-out frames of the 2010, 2011, and 2013 robots remain, although they have no electronics or mechanisms.

Our 2012 robot is...

Re: Best low goal robot

I'm surprised 3683 hasn't been mentioned yet. Their driver is great and their climber is fast.

Almost forgot, 5401 had a great showing as well. Very clean design, it's beautiful up close.
