Our team welded the full version. I'm curious why your team did not even follow the team drawings.

Because they're 1625 and plan on getting 40 points by balancing their robot on the top of the tower solely supported by the hed of a bolt after scoring 72 points in autonomous by themselves, and scoring every frisbee in the human player station using full-court shots from the loading stations.

I am still waiting on VEXPro or AM to source a WINPump. Trying to adapt commercial WINPumps to a KOP motor is such a pain.

That's why we use magic pixie dust. It's easier to source and no motor required.

Are you sure?

R95 doesn't state that you can't use pixie dust, so this means we can, right?

Right?

In 2011, one of our students actually spent a few minutes looking for one online. I don't think anyone had the heart to stop him.

Yeah, we did. He is now our team president and end effector driver. The WINpump sealed the deal.
