Team 1785 will add a fast 2-canburglar for auto (working great on the duplicate bot). In autonomous (if we don't use our canburglar) we can carry 2 Totes/1RC to the autozone, ending autonomous with 2 yellow totes that are quickly added to the step for co-op - which has worked very well for us in our Regionals.
We primarily work the landfill and can do 3 stacks of 4 w/RC's, 2 stacks of 5, or (with help combining) 2 stacks of 6 w/RC's.

Hey Guys!

Sorry, my spreadsheet was giving me issues concerning editing in google docs, so I have made a copy that you can find here.

Team 836 is so excited to return to Archimedes!
As some may know (as witnessed by our good friends ROBOTZ Garage!) we had a tough time at our first regional. We decided at our second regional to do a complete make-over on the practice day at Chesapeake - turning one robot into two. We had a much better outing. We have been constantly iterating in the shop with the practice bot, and believe we are now ready to really compete with Odyssey and Aquarius!

For those who say, no video - it didn't happen ... here is a video of a practice run ...

Team 1640

Primarily a human player station stacker. 3 stacker.
2 stacks of 6 with RC and a noodle. One 4, 5, or 6 stack with RC.
We want our RC's laying down. We do not use a ramp.
We can landfill if pressed to do it. Best would be 2 stacks of 6 with RC. 5 is more stable.

20 point auton, We have 2 different routines to place the stack at 2 different locations. One for quals and one for elims.

2 burglars. < 1 sec. We improved their speed from MAR Champs.

Team is pumped and looking forward to playing with teams from the rest of the country after competing with in MAR .
Good luck to everyone.

I like the addition of the humanoid robot on the field that straightens the stacks! Will he wear a team t shirt during the match??

Looks awesome! Can't wait to see it firsthand. With the tether being held that high, have you seen any issues with it tangling? Looks to me like it'd make it easier for another robot to get caught on it.

Good Luck and see y'all tomorrow!
