Kamikaze Robot Strategy
When I first saw this year's task, I thought that it would be a somewhat boring tractor-pull event. The more I hear others' strategies, I realize, as usual, that I was way off the mark. I think that a DLG bot would NEVER be successful. He would have to drag two bots, kicking and screaming as well, without rotating(lest he moves one goal back into the middle zone). Also, I would wonder how long he would hold on to the goals when the other two bots are pushing together on the same side of one goal to rotate him. Do I smell smoke? Oh, is this gonna be a fun year.
We were so excited about it that we had to convince our school board to revisit their decision about traveling out of state ( as a result of 9-11). We lost our corporate funding and now are begging, borrowing and stealing to get to the nats.
Can't wait!!!
