We just watched their FIRST match via SOAP.
The "flailer" device was very impressive. I dont think it is as fast deploying as 148... but watching on a webcast probably didnt show it in it's full glory.

They deployed the flailer, took down a few rows of boxes, maybe 4 or 5... then extended the flailer farther, and took down some more.

I'm impressed, but then again... there was no doubt in my mind that I would be. Another amazing bot from Team Hammond.

I still haven't seen any evidence of the "Lint-Roller" mechanism Raul described.
