Re: pic: Team 1114 - Simplicity in Design

You guys have always had great robots. What makes this one so great, however, is that the ability to construct the machine falls within the capacity of... well, to be honest, not all FRC teams, but probably 25%-50% of the teams could have built a machine of similar sophistication. (Although the level of polish, practice and programming might not have been quite as high... we could have built it.)

IF we had thought of it.

To be perfectly honest, this year's game is one of the simplest in the past five years in many ways. It seems appropriate, therefore, that a robot that expemplifies elegant simplicity is leading the pack heading in to Atlanta.

I hope I get the chance to cheer for you on Saturday afternoon on Einstein, this is a Championship whose time has come!
