Re: FRC Team 973 2012 Robot :: Encore

Nice work with the video Cory, glad you went with that song, it fits well!

The robot is definitely as cool as you described, and I'm sure there's features yet to be unveiled. Is the competition bot all black?

Quick questions: With all the different methods of fabrication mixed into this bot, what went where? For example, the brackets that Tonthat made, what did those get used for? What parts are tube and what is sheetmetal?

What motors/ custom gearbox are running in that shooter?

Is the intake going to double as a bridge manipulator/balance bar or will you have dedicated mechanism for that? (I'm guessing this is what some of your additions today will be).

Very cool bot, I look forward to seeing it at the Championships
