The midline autonomous was one of my first jaw-drops for the season. Good work guys.

Is that all encoder/gyro or are you sensing the line or anything?

This explains all the high scores coming out of SD this weekend! Well done 987! I love the turreted, angle-adjusting shooter, it is a work of art.

Hope to make it to champs and see it in person!

Thanks!
That autonomous only uses encoders+gyro.

The wheel is a 2008 KoP wheel available from andymark. This is after we blew tread a few times on an AM performance wheel. See Joe Barry's thumb for details (and students wearing full face shields during testing).

Love this robot
Good to know the legacy will roll on after the Mauro's have left
Beautiful driving Curtis and Brandon.
Couldn't be happier with the team coming together and creating such a wonderful machine.
Undefeated season here we come... (Knocks on wood)

Amazing robot, I am really glad I went to SD as a spectator. It was a lot of fun watching that robot score. I thought the vertical conveyor for ground pickup of frisbees was really clever. Sure gave the robot a lot more space to work with.

Did you go with an onboard computer again?

A fantastic robot from one of my personal favorite FRC teams. Everything looks very well executed, as is expected from you guys. It's a shame we only see you at Championship! 148 is going to have to head out to Vegas in the coming years...

Thanks Connor,
and by all means, join us!

This is already my favorite robot this year. I seriously used to think that anyone making a turreted shooter for Ultimate Ascent was wasting their time... but I will happily admit that I was dead wrong. Absolutely fantastic.

For 987, it seems like going undefeated is becoming less of an achievement and more of a habit.

Thanks, Alec. Can't wait to see what Wildstang has in store for this year.
