Ok, the stinger extends down the height of the ramp... so you don't have to cross the balance point of the ramp to level... just push down and retract.... takes all of the momentum out of the balance equation...

You guys continue to step up the competition... can't wait to see this thing in detail.

Really suprised we haven't seen more of these mechanism on robots this year.

Or maybe they are all hiding....

They are an elusive species that camouflages well into their environment until they are ready to strike.

I see what you did there!

There may be more kinds hiding out there, some that provide an illusion of wisdom..

Floats like a butterfly, stings like a Bee!

Something I'll have to watch for. If I was with the team and had my say, I'd post-prototype something like that and see if it's a doable modification between events. My gut would say it's rather hard to do postseason with no engineering experience.

Luckily, if it works how I think it works, you only need one per elimination alliance.

Notice how there's nobody in rainbow tie-dye running away from 33's robot. We like a challenge.

This machine looks phenomenal. I honestly can't wait to watch it perform at Kettering. You guys have truly outdone yourselves yet again. Hopefully we can have a repeat of IRI 2011 at the Championships?
