All that snazzyness, and still under weight.

~110 lbs to be exact.

Umm.. no, not 110 lbs underweight.
That would truly be a featherweight category. 110 lbs total.

Hmm... is that a platform I see? How exactly are you planning on picking up tetras?
Cool design though...

Platform? Huh? I guess.. But it is pretty much our final robot.

As for how we pick up tetras see this pic:

Did someone say featherweight??? You know when I was a young lad and actually on a FIRST team...they used to give out awards for things like I dunno say building a good robot, having a nice looking robot...see a pattern here? A much different one then the pattern we see in today's awards. But I digress...there used to be an award called "Featherweight in the final's...awarded to the team with the lightest robot to make it into the elimination rounds if I remember correctly. *coughs* Flying Pig *coughs*

Directly in the back the compressor currently lacks protection. There are two side panels not on in this pic that cover the sides and protect the electronics and the top of the compressor.

We had no other place to mount the compressor and it doesn't fit sideways. The main concern is the 90⁰ air fitting coming out of the compressor (rear of robot). We have plenty of spare fittings and compressors but we may make a small baffle or shield for it if need be.

We were worried about the same thing, so we took the top piece of the compressor off and spun it around, so the connection wasn't on the outside of our bot. We had run out of whatever size connector fits in that second hole. But it works perfectly if you want to try it
