Re: Best Pinning Robots You've Seen so Far

[quote=Teamcap.2395;830828]you guys did an awesome job, congrats on your win!


And last but not least... 2395 the Ninja Munkees Our robot's 6 wheel drive worked really well for us because of the dropped center wheels. When we got into a pushing match, the force of our opponent pushing back on us caused our back wheels to gain more traction. Essentially using our opponents pushing force against them. There were multiple times during our competition, where we pushed several robots from one side of the field to the other.

It was fun working with you guys. One of my favorite memories was the qualifiying match where we teamed up to drive 2333 from the outpost all the way to the airlock and cracked their casing. (I talked to them later and it turns out that their repairs to the bot actually made it stronger so I didn't feel quite as bad about damaging them)
