I had thought the same thing but just reread through the rules, and its perfectly legal as long as its safe. Guess i'm just used to grappling hooks being not alloweed.

Great idea 118! looks awesome!

It didn't look like there was a mechanism on that would even potentially be removed like previous years.

Climber (2013)
super twisty claw (2015)

That is an awesome robot.

I think the issue in 2012 was that is was a bridge grappler...

I see springs and pneumatic cylinders on the catapult, but I'm not really sure how they work together to launch the boulders. Any ideas?

What we did on our robot is used the pistons to pull the springs back and then used a latch system to hold it down and then primed the cylinders and release the latch. I am not sure what they are doing but it might be something like that.

It was AWESOME to see the one time Endeavour deployed this mechanism in a match. If it had not been made illegal, we would have seen them driving along the edge of the bridges to fine tune the balance (as told to me by one of their mentors).

This year's robot is similarly inspiring! We look forward to playing with you at Lone Star.
