Re: New Championship Layout 2015
Don't rule it out. It's only about 2/10ths of a mile from the door of building B to the doors of the new stadium. As long as there is a path from the convention center into the stadium for the...

Re: New Championship Layout 2015
The airport is also worth some concern. Flights were much more expensive and harder to come by this year. Large increase in the amount of people coming in to town? Yikes! Lambert is not very big.

Re: Best way to estimate the best defense bot
It's probably not the best method, but I had our scouts watching for collisions between robots. Give a point for a collision won, take a point away for a collision lost. Find the ratio between the...

Weather radar uses microwave radio pulses that would not have any effect on other wireless signals. Otherwise your internet would drop every time the radar makes a rotation (radars run at all times,...

Re: Archimedes 2012!
The pic you have for 1311 is team 2614's robot, I believe. I'll try and get you a correct one, unfortunately all I have is a video of the original, overweight machine.

Re: Divisions 2012
Don't forget 2974!
