Well, we got our bot moving a couple of days ago... Clocked it at about 30 mph. Man does that thing move. Anyone want to drag race after the Canadian competition? j/k

Its not supposed to go that fast, but it is kinda cool. We found the gearing glitch, and it is running today with twice as many motors to boot. We have powerful motion. <breaker trips> TANJIT! Except for that. Ah vell... We will get that fixed.

I think you are wrong. The way I read rule M12 it seems as though everything you will use must be on during the inspection including the weigh in. After that you can take things off and use only some parts but I do not think you will be allowed to have several weigh ins.

This has been answer by FIRST. If you read the Q&A from FIRST you will find out that you have to wieght your robot as it would be on the field. so if you do have different config. you need to wiegh them in at wiegh in.

So you take off one thing and put something on as long as each config. is under 130lbs.


we have 3 configs

Our robot, Coyobot III, also recently started running around. We're very happy that it is working so well right now. Good luck to everyone!
