Re: Who is team ####?

We're team 639, (the first) Code Red Robotics from Ithaca NY. We've been around since 2001, and have won regionals in 2004 and 2005. Since then, we have reliably gotten into the semifinals at atleast one regional, and our showing has been improving as well. Our team has grown astronomically in the last two years--from 35 to 60. Though this presents many hurdles, our team has kept our base philosophy that the robot should be led, designed, built, and tested by students with the mentors acting as a very valuable safety net. To this, major decisions remain a popular democratic vote, and the club is run fully by student officers. We're pretty well known for being 'those guys with the tank', which is an image we are trying to change. In the past years, we've used tank tread and way too much T-slot to make a robot that is unbreakable, but quite slow and heavy.

Here's one of the more recent pictures of our team at FLR 2010. We're returning there this year, as we always do, and taking a trip to Washington DC for our second regional!
