Team lead says we're going to host the swamp scrimmage again this year. I hear we have a good turnout planned this time. I think he said 2 teams from Boca, Spam, Mars and hopefully Tech Tigers. So we could run some full up 3v3 matches! We only have 1 pole and 1 scoring grid though, so bring field items if you can, and food and drink for your team... If there's any other So Fl teams interested please PM me, it will be Feb 19th 10:00am at the old Inlet Grove High School:

Is your arm by chance welded on??? It looks like it. I might be wrong but from the view it sure looks like it.

P.s i mean the hand/gripper/manipulator

And my friend said to just go back and change it but who doesn't like a p.s every once in a while???

And how does the minibot stay on during that extremely quick deployment and subsequently detach itself to go up the pole?

We were definitely putting way too much thought into our mechanism and not enough thought into the fastest way to put up tubes. Incredible machine and approach you're taking, I love it!
