[cziggy343]

pardon my stupidity, but how does it shoot?

looks super dooper pretty

How do you guys manage to build the most amazing robots year after year? Somehow you always manage to make my favorite robot. You're awesome.

I hope it performs as well as it looks! When will we get to see more pictures of it?

[Ian Curtis]

That is soooooo pretty... Looks like it belongs in a Pixar movie, not on a FIRST field, although I'm sure it'll be a fierce competitor! How are you shooting them, and how long does it take to reload?

[lukevanoort]

Very, very nice. I think it looks even nicer than the '06 1501 model (more reserved). I particularly like the pneumatic shooter, makes for a much smaller and cleaner package than a ton of wheels. So, what are the vital stats? Weight, ball capacity, range, firing rate, etc.

DUDE I love this bot, if only if only I had seen this before season. Jk, vids would be nice.

[Qbranch]

HOLY COW! Another nice one from 1501!

That's a real beaut guys... is the drive 4wd skid steer?

Any video in the works?

Again, fantastic machine.

OMG ITS SOO COOL.
IT's like a whale bot, that spits balls, or something i don't even know! this thing must be able to eat other robot with that huge gaping mouth!!!

Not only is it one of the most beautiful FRC robots I've ever seen, but it makes the most wonderful "Ding!" sound each time it scores a moon rock.

[Mike Betts]

It reminds me of a Dr. Who style "villainous" robot... I like it!

Best of luck,

Mike

It doesn't like to miss either, so the "ding" is truly telling others that it scored.

WOW! Nice. This is my teams first (pun intended) year and from what I've seen so far, this is the nicest looking one with a clever utilization of rivets and the exit sign (lol). Just throwing this out there, it looks like a kitchen mixer. But still awesome at that!

[samir13k]

I totally thought it looked like a kitchen mixer when it was finished! I just was not sure if i was just dillusional since i was hitting my 20th straight hr in the shop and it was 7 am!
