Re: coolest robots

this is gonna be a long post, a lotta good bots out there..

peachtree regional

i'm disapointed that there haven't been any peachtree regional bots mentioned yet...i'll have too change that.

343/538-both bots did similar things, and did them well. they could both cap quickly and efficiently. 343 also had a real mean drive train.

1002/1057-our alliance partners, and they were two of the quickest and most dependable hangers there.

1371-thay may be rookies, but they had without a doubt, one of the most effective cappers at peachtree. also, interestingly enough, their robot is painted bright pink, their motto is 'think pink' and as of yet, are completly unaware of the existance of team 233. i smell a duel cooking....

494-probably one of the strongest robots there, in more ways then one. they could hang, cap, and lift other robots off the bar with their arm. their 6 motor drivetrain was insanely powerful, and combined with their step sliders, allowed them to take the 6-inch step like it was nothing

UCF regional

21-the only ball catcher i've seen, and i think with its swerve drive and capping arm, one of the best.

61/233-both very quick up the steps and very quick hangers

945/312/710/311- all designed to do the same things, all do them well, and all do them in a completly different manner. 945 has a beastly drivetrain strong arm. heatwave's arm is as versatile as ever, and is quick to hang. 710's hanging system/drivetrain/step climber is just down right cool. 311 almost always got the ten point ball in auto mode

179-probably the best big ball handler at UCF, and a simple yet speedy drive train too.

1083/180-these two holonomic bots were just downright awesome

1144-they've come a long way in a single year, and have a very effective ball collector
