Re: Inaugural 2011 Texas Robot Round-up!
It's not enough that I helped design and engineer the robot? You want me to learn how to drive an Octanum too? And/or figure out how to work our pivot/telescope arm to best advantage. Either way, manual dexterity really isn't my thing....

Re: Inaugural 2011 Texas Robot Round-up!
Just an aside, but is there a reason we're not using RobotEvents for registration and all that? It's free, and I think it even handles the money for you.

Re: Inaugural 2011 Texas Robot Round-up!
I don't know if I ascribe to this philosophy. Throwing people into the deep end without any support may teach them to swim, or atleast not drown, but it's probably also going to make them terrified of the water. I'd think it might be better to have some more experienced students there to hold their hands a bit. And then make sure the older students know they're supposed to be completely hands off the robot, etc.

Re: Inaugural 2011 Texas Robot Round-up!
Team 3735 will be going and hopefully for both days. Most of the team is seniors so we are going to go with the new team members to give them an idea of how a first competition works.
Minibot deployment will be having an overhaul this summer though. |

Re: Inaugural 2011 Texas Robot Round-up!
Has anything been announced as to what the inspection is going to consist of? I know the students on our team is working on a potential drive train to experiment with and are considering putting on this year's bot to try out in Austin. The only thing with it is by adding it to the bot as a test platform it is about 10 lbs. overweight.
