Re: Video: Bomb Squad Breakaway Robot
There has been much debate about what is "key" for a robot to do in this game. In my opinion, this comes down to two main things:
1. Ball Control
2. Robot Agility
If you have those two things, you're in good shape.
In my opinion this Bomb Squad robot has some of the best ball control I've seen (it is definitely the best "rolling ball" controller I've seen.)
Combine this ball control with the Bomb Squad's signature 3-wheeled swerve drive, and I expect big things. These guys have so much experience with this swerve drive I have no doubt they'll literally be driving circles around their opposition!
To my friends in Arkansas:
Looks absolutely awesome. I hope everyone is proud of the result. I know I'm not the only one who can't wait to see this machine in action.
Best regards from the rest of the 'wranglers...
