Killer Bees - 2014

I spy an Omni wheel!

Very nice bot, look forward to seeing it at champs!

(I was hoping someone would use this song in a reveal video )

[Nathan Streeter]

Excellent robot! Quite frankly, looks like it has it all!

I would by no means be surprised to see 33 one-up their performance from last year... but more than a few things need to go right just to make it back onto Einstein!

Just blew me away, very impressive robot once again.

[Jonathan Norris]

It's the details that make this robot awesome, the little loop/arm that comes down to hold the ball in place while driving is seriously smart. Looking forward to seeing this robot at Champs.

That video needs more #zondagshuffle

[Jim Zondag]

There will be lots more #zondagshuffle at Southfield, Midland, Troy, MSC and CMP.

Gorgeous robot, as always from 33.

Definitely looking forward to taking a closer look at the subtle details that make all the magic to this machine. Best of luck this season, I'd be surprised to not see it in the mix of The Final Four.

I'm going to miss seeing most of these in person this year. Hopefully the webcasts capture some of them!

Love my Bees! I expected nothing less than stunning from you, and you still out-did my expectations.

Good luck at Southfield on both robot and Chairman's this weekend!

I think this is the best robot we've seen so far. I think you guys made some good tradeoffs and found the simplicity beyond complexity. Kudos! I'd love to see 148 play with you guys (again).

This is high praise from JVN, thanks.
We also love Vader, very cool.
Yes, we would love to get together (again).

Looks amazing! Best of luck this season.

Awesome robot!
In hindsight, why didnt everyone think of the ball catch collector idea like you folks?!
Given the robot dimension rules, this design maximizes the area in which to catch and collect above and beyond what has been revealed so far.

Great song too......I was telling our team 2 weeks ago to use the same also. Good thing we didnt.

This looks like the best overall machine I have seen yet this year. The shooter/pickup/collector individual systems appear to be very effective; I especially like the roller speed, and the aggressive launching power.

Nicely done! Can't wait to check it out at champs.
