Re: 2014 FRC Game element

Re: 2014 FRC Game element

I think you're looking at it wrong. The blue object is the robot.
Welcome to the most aggressive bumper rules to date.

Re: 2014 FRC Game element

I think the reason you can't see the robots is that they're flying. Hovercraft game!

Re: 2014 FRC Game element

I think the floor material is the clue here. Hard concrete but quit slick. Other materials that are slick? Ice. Ice is made from water, so WATER GAME
