Is Balancing 2 Goals That Difficult????
Posted by Thomas Grupp at 03/12/2001 3:51 PM EST


Engineer on team #378, Circuit Stompers, from Newfane High School and Delphi Automotive Systems.



I have read alot of these posting and have seen 2 regionals broadcasted. Maybe my opinion will change once we, Team 378 The Circuit Stompers!!, attend the Great lakes regional.

But during our practice time we had with our robot "Louie The Low Rider", Yes we can limbo, we grabed both goals and balanced on the ramp in 40 seconds. That means there would be 1 min and 20 sec left over. If the other 3 robots just got in the end zone your looking at a minimum of 300 points.

Correct me if Im wrong but at the Virginia regional I did not see two goals balanced at all. From the scores from the western michigan regional it seems that robots there were capable of doing the dual balance.

I would like to hear from anybody and everbody about this. I would just like to know if what I saw our robot do at practice is repeatable, on a consistance basis? Or am I living in a dream world?
