In 2014, they built a pure intake robot - kiss passing, floor loading, human loading, that's all. Performed very well at their regional and off seasons.

This year, they built a bottom stacker with a simple articulated intake and a center bin mechanism (not shown here). Before the Elims of their first event, they added a ramp and their stacking ability went through the roof. At Finger Lakes, they secured the #1 seed by a very wide margin, consistently putting up at least two stacks of six every match. Oftentimes they got up another 3-4 stack as well.

Love this robot and this team. Best of luck in St. Louis.

Also they edge out 340 as the best robot from New York State in 2015 in my opinion. Great team and I can wait to see what they make next year too. Don't change your design process one bit 'cause its working very, very well.
