Agreed, guys if you haven't had the pleasure of seeing 710 play some defense just wait until nationals. They kept it simple simple simple, extraordinarily powerful drive train and some innovative "Shot Blockers" to boot. Its hard enough to shoot when you've got a solid drive train pushing you around, now add a meshy pvc giant rejection hand in your face its great. Also a great defensive/offensive protector autonomous, they were the only ones that got close to stopping our autonomous by pinning us to the wall. ( thats why we had to speed it up and hit the wall so fast.. sorry Houston playing field!! ) Also in order to protect 86 they fly out in front in the semi finals and I believe take out 2 robots heading for them.
Add in the fast as lightning factor and the two speeds for pushing and you've got a beast that will have its way with your bot. I can't wait to see these guys go against some of the best. If I recall correctly their drivers and coach aren't too bad either.
