To answer any questions about Orion...

It is 18" by 16"
It weighs 48.2 pounds, as George said, with bumpers and battery
It goes 27 fps... yes... 27 feet per second... (geared for 30fps) one reason why you see it fly.
We have 4 mechanum wheels... after a few practice matches they disable the use of the strifing of the wheels because our driver found it eaiser to just drift into the corners and keep it up and still have the speed.

Our driver is PHENOMINAL at keeping it upright. A few times we did tip mostly because we were knocked off balance due to hitting a robot at full speed or being hit by another robot carrying a ball. And yes George, that one time it did tip... it was funny to try to see them get it back up. I didn't know why they couldn't until you pointed it out. Thanks!!!

And thank you to everyone who is saying things bout this lil robot I am passing it along to my team and especially my engineers. We had a great showing at the NJ Regional (got onto the 4th alliance) and are ready for our next regional at the end of the month. Hopefully you will follow Orion through the season and we really hope to get to Atlanta and put on a great show there Keep an eye on us... or at least try to haha
