Re: pic: Rice 870 Robot

That is quite an amazing robot you guys have. The degrees of motions on the arm are amazing. It can telescope up, rotate around and rotate up. I didn't have too much time to watch you guys but our scouters during the day definatly relized how good of a robot you guys have and that the rank that you finish in the end of the day has no bearing on how you are going to do on the finals. I love how your robot could realign the tetra on the corner that we half capped (Last Finals Match), our arm just would not have been able to fix that. Your robot was also incredibly solid! It never had any problems during the spit-fire rounds of the finals. While Us and 358 would be making last second fixes, your robot would be in top condition! And your team ready to give a hand to others if in need. Your drive system was also amazing, you had a tremendous amount of traction and a very low center of gravity, which you guys definatly used to your advantage and even pushed some other robots around to keep them off our back while we capped.

So, Thanks for being such great alliance partners!
