Baxter Bomb Squad 2014 ~ Nighthawk

We are proud to present you with this year's Baxter Bomb Squad robot: Nighthawk! Inspired by the triumphant F-117 Nighthawk stealth bomber's breathtaking visual features, our team this year put an exceptional ball-launching robot to compete in this year's game. Please visit www.baxterbombsquad.com for more information about our team!

Send me a PM if you want a higher resolution image or images of our mechanisms (the mechanisms may take a bit of time depending on if I am at the Bomb Shelter [our shop] or not).

Re: Baxter Bomb Squad 2014 ~ Nighthawk

Wow this is a game tailor-made for you guys to succeed-
Wide-open field for swerve and a game piece made for a catapult.
Incredible robot this year. I wouldn't be surprised to see you on Einstein once again.

I knew the second the game was revealed, it was literally built for your team. Turns out I was correct. I can't wait for queen city.

Thanks for all the kind words everybody. We're really proud of our robot, so it's nice to hear it from y'all.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here. We'll check in here regularly to answer what we can.

Ok, I will take you up on that. How does your shooter mechanism work? Your robot was moving so fast I could not really get a good view of it.

Beautiful machine. Your swerve seems a bit faster than usual - what speeds are you running it at?
