Awesome machine.

How steep of an angle does a robot have to climb to get onto your robot?

Actually, the other robot balances on the bridge, we drive up and have a cylinder that holds the bridge so they just drive up on us without having to go up a ramp

Again you guys have created a solid, creative robot that will be formidable in competition. I can't wait until West Michigan to see this robot up close.

This year is one of the best games in encouraging different designs and strategies. Now all that's left is to see how these robots fare in competition.

Great job guys. Very innovative. Excited to play with/against this beast. Was really hoping for a giant hammer though to lower the bridge!

thanks to everybody im sure the team will appreciate the compliments

Another solid machine from a great team. Your video should have included more footage of all those long shots you were sinking! See you at West Michigan.

Thanks again to 2771 "Code Red" for providing us all the opportunity to practice together.

Our team is planning on scouting at gull lake, so we can see your awesome robot, your team usually has one

Very cool robot. Probably my favorite that I've seen so far.

(As a Minnesota Viking fan the blue "V" and logo just don't look right, though).

Whoever has seen the video, do you think this way to balance 3 robots is feasible in competition?

Does it actually balance? The video cuts short each time you are attempting to do it.

we only tried balancing once but we added a part to the robot to keep it from tipping if it goes to far, but we can actually push all three robots up ourselves so we can control it very well.

[its da PAT!!!]

I think its feasible if you can actually do it. It looks really hard to get it balanced, by shown in your video of you not quite getting it, but I assume that those were some of the first attempts. I know 1501 has the same stacking idea and they had trouble at practice this past sunday.
