Re: Team 1717 retires
Although I understand why they chose to find another capstone, I am still sad to hear of this. I've seen 1717 only once in person, at champs this year, and they were both amazing to watch on the field and really friendly when we stopped by their pit, answering many questions about their swerve drive.
When I've explained drivetrains to rookies, I always used videos of 1717, and I will continue to do so. They were amazed by "the robot that can move sideways," and I always was too, even after watching them dozens of times. We'll miss you 1717, and we won't forget you.
