Although we didn't make it to champs, we made it into finals at both regionals we went to this year (KC & North Star). We ended up being ranked 47th in the world Anyway, we CAD'd all of our robot so we could CNC all of our parts.

Another thing we do is build our robot in a module based system, which is super effective as if one sub-system breaks, we can easily fix it.

Check out our website for more details.
