We were watcing New York Tech Valley and whenever we saw you guys do a shot we all threw our arms up and screamed. Like, there was an instance where you guys almost scored a goal from the loading zone and it was great.

Software can never ever have the robot. That's how it works so well!

Me too, I think he was trying to link to email attachments or something.

But I saw that baby up close in Milwaukee, and it's really something.

2481 is my nomination for most "scary awesome" in 2014.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NEaVj4dT8s

They won in Wisconsin, with good reason.

I was about to mention them, you beat me to it! Their use of swerve, their fantastic pickup mechanism, and their accurate shooting made them by far my favorite robot at the Wisconsin regional.

Great driving to elude defense.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fngz...tH3hUljz8wc_Vw
This was the only match that they lost all weekend, until the QuarterFinals.
An aberration that should be corrected this weekend.

A unique design that can shoot on the fly. A necessity to make shots in a game that defense is changing.
I agree: if there's one scary robot I've seen in New England, it's 195.
Such speed and power.

Also, I think you have the wrong match where 195 lost-- that was match 15.

Re: Scary Bots

On the practice field at Orlando, we had a few teams say that our robot sounds like a tank or a mortar firing. And we kick with 400+ lb spring force
