Once again congrads to them and their alliance.
Maybe next year a different 3 teams will have a chance in taking home the big trophy cuz 254's trophu case have got to be heavy from all those BIG trophies and medals. j/k 
Good Luck guys in GA |
our srv titles are never undisputed. we've gotta face alot tough teams to get them. every year we set out to make the best bot we can and push the envelope just a little more.
as for the cable...OMG! frustrating...as one of the main mech. guys on the team let me tell chasing that problem was so annoying. and i almost cried when our bot fell the 4-5 feet it did. we all went grabbing for allen wrenches and screw drivers thinking we'd have to do some kinda overhaul on the drive side it fell on. and we were stunned that the robot didn't even suffer a scratch from the fall. no dents no nada...i dunno. i guess the hdpe absorbed the impact.
thanks to our alliance partners 971 and 852! we've been impressed with 971's hanging system since we watched them test it @ our lab, GREAT JOB GUYS!. and as for 852 we don't know how they stayed around till the second round of picking but we love you guys! awsome team year to year!
