What teams can boast 6 trophies in their first 2 years? Not many, if any. Ask anyone at SBPLI about the quality or performance of our bot, please. Also tremendous driving. Can't be quantified but a skilled driver can make success work with any partner against any opponent, which we did 10 out of 10 times. That's right undefeated in qualification matches at SBPLI. One last note, our robot doesn't have 2 speeds, we can't travel at 65 and 2 fps but we move quickly enough, and we can push the goal at full drivetrain speed. I ask that teams scout carefully to see if 2 gear goal grabbers can actually push the goal in their high gear. If they don't have enough torque at that high speed then they must move very slowly with the goal.Demand Torque at Speed. and then come see us give it to you.
