That's one HOT looking robot. When it was revealed all I could say was wow.

[Jibri Wright]

Man. Epic.... 0.o

[Steven Donow]

Love it. 1986 always produce one of my favorite robots year after year.

[AllenGregoryIV]

This amazing, to be able to do nearly everything in such a simple elegant design is just amazing. 21 sec 30 point climb is amazing.

[Mark Sheridan]

wow! that is a elegant design. The 30 point climber caught me by surprise.

You guys mind to tell the reason for the arm shiver before and after going to the corner to load?

The arm clears momentarily when the shooter shifts position.

Slick robot. With all of your robots you have a tenancy to reduce every component of the game into the simplest assembly of mechanisms, I love it!

[holygrail]

Awesome...just awesome. I feel lucky to have seen it in person. I was especially impressed to see that 30 point climb happen so fast. See you at the K.C. regional!

We should be well practiced by the time we get to KC.

[Drivencrazy]

Looks good guys! I like the pick up arm for autonomous and sick climber too. Good work!

[Bill_B]

Great looking machine, for sure. The most revealing detail from the video: they didn't bother to put reflective tape around the 2-pt goal. Evidence of a mindset that accepts only tiptop performance.

Awesome robot guys! We were so amazed to see this in person. We can't wait to see it in action in KC. Thanks again for helping our rookie team!
