Re: How many days do your programmers get with a fully built robot before stop build

We design, test, and prototype code with other systems or older robots. Our experiences with a "fully assembled" robot, by which I mean the robot we intended to have on Stop Build Day, range from...

Re: [FRC Blog] The 2016 Season, by the Numbers 2

Re: Wisconsin District Rankings

If IL went to districts, and this was a possibility, (sponsor-willing) I'd drop regionals and go to IL to do districts in a heartbeat.

Unfortunately, I doubt that would ever be an option afforded to...

Re: Strategy during Final at Einstein

2056/1690 actually announced both picks simultaneously, so there wasn't any lobbying from 3015 (as far as I know). In fact, they were some of the fastest decisions in the Tesla selections overall :p

Re: FRC 71 2002 Marching technique

If I remember correctly:

In 2007 the endgame was to elevate other robots off the floor, usually using platforms or ramps that robots would fold out and/or lift up.

In one match, 111 was with 2...
