Re: Need help! FRC2826 Wave Robotics 2016 Mecanum Drive!

So your strategy is to simply drive over the low bar? That's thinking outside the box!

I have to say, though, that a robot that could just drive over the Cheval de Frise without even caring would be pretty impressive.

Also, clearly the reason his "student" actors are so well versed in the robot is because the mentors spend at least 6 weeks coaching them on the ins and outs of the robot.

I got a tip that the "actor theory" is just a cover up for the real reason their "students" know how the robot works. The mentors use polyjuice potion and they just find some random kids to transform into.

Totally seems legit. We're all just a bunch of hoodwinked muggles. Wave Robotics, eh? The only thing that team is waving is WANDS.

Magic totally explains how they could fit that robot inside a 120" frame perimeter. And how they posted video of this year's robot back in 2009. And they used time turners to finish the robot so quickly and... it all fits man. That has to be it.
