We're excited for competition season after another challenging build. Congratulations to all teams and we'll see you in Dallas, Sacramento, and Lone Star.

Wow.

I'm always amazed by how much detail goes into all of the sub-assemblies of your robots, and I love how they're always littered with clever little mechanisms. The fact that you can design, build, and test such a complicated robot in six weeks is astounding!

Definitely not! They need you to get into the auto zone. Just ask. They will probably come over to your pit and program your sled so it will get into the zone with them. Think about what else you could do to help.

I am wondering how many casts were filmed before they caught both containers from the step.

Sorry to miss it in person.

An inspiration as usual. Well done.

Really great Video and soundtrack as usual !

My favorite device is definitely the passive stack topper.


Week 1 Dallas is going to be amazing with most of the Texas powerhouses plus 987 & 932

I am still wondering how this breaks down to fit in their champs crate... lol

Your team always comes out with an outstanding robot each year!!! I LOVE that claw design for the bins! It blew my mind as soon as I saw that, I had to watch it over again a few times!

That's a good question for many teams!
We have to pack our robot in a crate for 3 of our 4 events.

We spent an entire day yesterday figuring out how to best pack our robot and items in our new crate since it has to be 48 x 48 x 48in., which is much shorter than our regular one. If it was the standard 68in high, FIRST Australia said it had to be on its side at certain points of the shipping.

I am not even sure if ours will need to be crated or not yet.. I guess we will cross that bridge if we get there. Mandatory crating for the unexpected teams may cause a bit of crisis for some. Anyways, I am looking forward to playing with you guys at 118!

So Which intake wheels do you like better? You see 3 different versions. (white treat, single black wheel, double black wheels)

My jaw literally dropped when I saw the trash bin spin around!
