I'm so excited SPAM is on Newton. I'm looking forward to seeing in person all these robots I'm pre-scouting.
Our robot looks a little different than it did in our
reveal video. Our floor pick-up was removed, and our human loading was improved. We've refined our full-court shooting both in accuracy and speed. We can empty the alliance station of discs in under 50 seconds with no loss of accuracy. We're comfortable cycling to the pyramid or spotting up and shooting from anywhere else on the court.
I'm impressed with the quality of robots I see in the Newton field (especially you Michiganders... y'all are incredible). I disagree with the supposed "weakness" of Newton this year. This was said about Galileo last year, but Gali was able to put together some impressive alliances because of
depth. I expect the same from Newton this year.
Best of luck, everyone!
