Baxter Bomb Squad: Greater Kansas City Video

Vimeo link up. Yes, the government is to blame because the threat of the SOPA bill forced Google (owner of Youtube) to be more strict on copyright.

Has nothing to do with that, Youtube had an agreement with the record companies long before the SOPA controversy...

Anyways...

I like the robot! It's nice to see a fellow catapult.

Congrats on Kansas.

See all of you at Champs.

Nice video; you guys were great. Although it would have been a lot less strain on this old man's heart if you hadn't broken in the first game of both the quarters & semi.

Missouri. Although you could almost throw a rock from the arena & hit Kansas.

I stand corrected. Thank you.

[JTN]

Thanks. We hope to see more.

Liked the video. You guys built the perfect robot to compliment that swerve drive and Austin's insane driving skills. Loved the last clip highlighting the escape from the most agressive defender in KC this year. Good luck in Chicago. Unfortunatly we won't be able to watch while we are competing in St. Louis. We'll catch as much video as we can find afterwards though.

Another great video of my favorite robot in FIRST.

Thanks for the compliments. Did you like the FIRST logo Mosaic at the end? Took HOURS

and as to answer what broke on our robot, we had programming issues with a new auto mode we made one match, and the other was due to a problem with the USB port on the computer where the joystick was plugged in.

Yes, it was very nice. I wondered if you had a tool to do that; sounds like "no"

"broke" may have been too strong a word on my part. How about "stopped moving shortly after hybrid" ? In any case, the competition was too strong for a 2 on 3 to be very successful in eliminations, and you not able to do your (awesome) ball stealing & scoring was a major factor in our alliance losing the first game of both the quarters & semis. It was good that both problems were easy to fix.

Eh, robots break, I'll accept that. No misplaced words on your part.
