Re: FRC Team Strengths

We always seem to figure out exactly what to do, and implement it at the last possible second.

422 is relatively low in resources, but the team knows how to maximize its talent to put a high quality robot on the field that plays to a specific strategy (with additions in case the strategy doesn't pan out.) From the best lift and dumper in 09 (not bitter we lost. Maybe a little) to the best defensive mecanum bot (I don't know how either. Our driver took no prisoners) to the swinging ramp deployment for the fastest minibot that worked every time it had a chance (a miracle in itself).
We're also good with a few miracles. Some stuff just fits... I don't know how, but it fits when it all comes together. From the drive team to the electronics board, we seem to make it work every year, and that's what makes us strong.
