Re: Scouting on Newton 09'

here is team 1086's 2009 robot Blue Meunster!

*note* we have made modifications since winning the NASA/VCU regional

drive train: 4 wheel drive, chain driven from one cim and a modded toughbox per side. speed is around 8 f/s

capacity: in the belt and under the bot we can hold between 7-10 balls plus another 3-4 balls in our newly added dumper.floor pick up

scoring: we have done away with our long range scoring tri shooter and replaced it with a front facing basket. we will use the basket for delivering empty cells but it is capable of scoring on trailors. our primary scoring mode is our "puke mode" where we empty our full load at point blank range. we're capable of scoring 20+ points in a match but can do anythin our alliance needs (empty cells, defense, ect...)

autonomous: we have multiple autonomous modes capable of running from any starting position. our primary mode drives by our out post and pics up an empty cell.

see you in Atlanta!!

-Alex
