Re: What do you guys do with your old robots?
Well, our first two robots, from '03 and '04 are long gone. They got demolished for parts. '05 is a skeleton, but if we put the compressor, motors, etc. back in it would probably work. From '06 on, we save the competition bot and take the practice bot apart at the start of the next year's build season. We play, practice, train drivers, teach members, demonstrate, and show off with our 3-peat bots.
With the exception of the current year's practice robot, the working robots are stored at our practice facility, because we don't have room in our school's workshop. Plus, we can practice our defense with the old bots and prepare our drivers for the New England defense they'll see at the regional.
