Hey look, 100% less dubstep in that arm.

Congrats buddy, looks fantastic. Looking forward to the EWCP brawl at BAE!

Very slick robot. Enjoyed the video.

Awesome job Chris and 2791! This bot is amazing. Can't wait to see it in action!

Great job - looks like it'll be an effective robot in Ultimate Ascent... Hopefully I'll be able to swing by and check it out on Thursday. :-)

We look forward to playing with you at Granite State next weekend!

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Yup, the arm has zero dubstep this year. That was a day 1 design requirement. No PVC or wood anywhere on this robot.

BAE is going to be sick. Between 610, our "triplets" 229 and 4124, 1519, 3467, us... it's going to be an unusually offensively oriented regional.

Thanks! We certainly did okay last time we paired up at BAE! We promise we won't die going up the bridge during Finals 2 this year.

Especially when you consider the "usual" crew of 58, 78, 95, 126, 175, 319, 1058, 1073, 1153, and 1922 will all be attending... GSR always seems to have a very deep field (even if we do lack the "elite" level of the field), and this year seems to have even more depth! Should be great!

Hah - no hard feelings! We certainly have no regrets... other than having failed to harvest effectively at GSR! :-)

Chris and team, extremely slick bot this year. I wish you the best of luck!

After a day of matches how often are you finding you have to replace those orange shooter wheels due to wear?

We change them about once every 3-4 matches. We break in wheels with about 20 shots before going on field with them.

Put some speed control on them and they will last much longer
