Re: [Ri3D] The GreenHorns 2017
We finished our robot around 5AM this morning!!! We've been driving and filming our reveal video since then. A number of The GreenHorns pulled all nighters to finish things up in time, but our hard work paid off!

We decided to completely change our intake mechanism with only 12 hours left, and despite my initial frustration/concern it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made during this event. Our new intake is much faster, easier maintenance, lighter and just better in every way.

Another one of the best decisions we made was deciding to attempt every aspect of the game on one robot. We have successfully done so, and this robot is sweet. Can't wait to share the results of our reveal video with you all! We'll write up white papers after we recover from the lack of sleep... I'm running on 2.5 hours over the last 60 hours.
