Nice looking robot !!!
We look forward to playing robots with you guys!!

Our swerve came to life (finally) last night... and we shot the first balls from our mini-shooter last night also... so perhaps by this weekend we will have something to post...

We are busy working on the swerve controls...

By the way, last night we weighed our control board and it weighed 18 lbs..but it was on an 8 lb chunk of plywood (which we won't be using..) so it would appear to me that the control system (with 4 Jags) weighs in the neighborhood of 10 pounds wired...

We are switching over to a hexcell board for mounting the electronics on the weekend..

This could be fun... well... actually it already is fun...

Good luck!!
We look forward to seeing your finished product on the field!!
