As if Palmetto needed another reason to be the scariest regional nobody is talking about... jeez.

Killer robot. Glad you spent time making the video extra intimidating with the glow in the dark frisbees and the like.

See you in DC

Neat robot! Does the climber go to the 3rd level as well, or just the 2nd? We'll see you this Thursday at Palmetto I guess!

[swwrobotics]

Great robot! I really like the name you guys gave it. Can't wait to see it in DC!

[JohnFogarty]

Very solid robot!
Can't wait to see you guys at Palmetto!!
(We all know the Palmetto Regional is the best this week).

It can climb to the third level but we will only go that high if we need to. No need to risk a fall from 60+ inches.

Thanks, it was a lot of fun watching it zip around our shop. DC should be pretty interesting this year, who knows what the future holds.

Great bot from you guys again! Have you had a lot of practice time with the second robot?

Palmetto is looking very interesting now.

We have had more practice time this year than any year in the past. It was essentially a seamless transition from competition bot to practice bot.

I think Palmetto was already interesting, even prior to our reveal.

Wow! Extremely epic!

On behalf of RAID (2537), we wish you the very best on your travels down south this weekend! Good luck at Palmetto!

[ehfeinberg]

Yet another high-caliber robot from the Robobees. Its a shame that 449 wont be competing with you guys this year, but I'll be sure to make it to DC to watch.

Got to love glow in the dark everything!
