I believe he is referring to the similarities between the newly announced Matrix platform and the Vex platform. See this thead for more details.

[team F.T.C 4240]

We were talking about trying to make a flying robot earlier this year, we started making prototypes but it seemed like the gears would make it to heavy because we would need to gear up the motors like crazy. It would be more like a helicopter, and if we used the light weight plastic gears then I think it would have better luck.

Is Flying robots like the "water game" FRC for FTC?

Huh. I thought it was just our team. I'm pretty sure it's impossible with both tetrix and vex. I was just making a stupid joke.


What would you think of using bean bags as the game object? Two years ago our coach thought this was the challenge.
