Re: Rookie Team 1746 creates it's first prototype robot

Oooh boy, you'll learn quickly. The only thing vet. teams have going for 'em is reliability. And generally not even that. The rookies are the ones who say for example:

Hmmmmm....if we jump off the 5' ramp with a load of game pieces at 10 ft/sec, we can get to the goal really quickly...


And the "too crazy for us, we know better" schemes always seem to work! You guys will have loads of fun.
