alternatively of could have been redesigned with IRI in mind, where most alliances will have a team which can pretty much fill the high row and where the bottom row is also worth 2

we tweaked our lift to take a second or so off the time to go bottom to top and we made a new deployment system.

Yes it can.

Looking really nice UPS! Is it still the same drivebase?

It is refreshing, though.

EDIT: Aren does this mean Kevin fulfilled the terms of last year's bet?

I must be missing something as well. How does it extend/reach the top row?

By being approximately 8ish ft tall in the picture?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that mean it exceeds the starting configuration dimensions?

Maybe they have a way for it to unfold or something at the start of the match!

this reminds me of 469's robot this year. how does it extend, telescoping or folding?

[Akash Rastogi]

From CAD to real life, what an awesome bot. Its like if WildStang's robot had a baby with HOT's. Good luck Are..I mean Katie!

Just what I was thinking too. A good upper assembly needs a proper drive base to equally demolish on the field!

We had some changes in mind but we lost our build space and classroom when the school year ended. All of our stuff is in storage except what is needed for IRI, that is in our new trailer. We are hoping to come and have fun, then after IRI find a new home.

Guess the cat's probably out of the bag now - this is actually 1625's robot. It was a pretty effective scorer, think 469 with a roller claw and you're about there. It didn't make elims, but teams like 51, 234, and 330 managed to miss elims despite great performances so that doesn't mean much.
