Re: Most Effective Robot EVER?
I would probably have to say that the 71 machine in 2002 was the best I've ever heard of, BUT, it was from a different era of FIRST. In the modern era, my few favorite machines are, in no particular order:
1717 in 2012: The robot was just absolutely magical. Nobody swerves like 1717, and their drivers manually targeted shots faster and better than most teams that used vision. (Also I am ridiculously sad that we didn't get to see what 1717 would've cooked up for Stronghold).
341 in 2012: A super simple machine, and indisputably, fantastically effective at playing every aspect of the game.
469 in 2010: The closest thing since 2002 Hammond that we've had to a game-breaking robot. And their genius was that it wasn't ridiculously complex, just bold and perfectly executed.
67 in 2013: I just really love it. 30 pt climb, dump, full court shot, cycle: that robot had it all.
