I think its a little insulting to the team to assume that they would decide to invest time and resources into a complex mechanism just because they know how to.
If a team builds a two speed swerve in a game with no defence I expect nothing less of them for every subsequent game.

Re: 2451 PWNAGE: 2016 Robot

I have to say I am really impressed by your robot, and most of the tall robots have felt kind of lack luster to me up till now. I love the drawbridge mechanism and it seems like it will be the quickest of its kind in an actual match. But my favorite part is the way you shoot, I see no way to defend against that shot both in terms of location of the shot, and height of release.

Re: 2451 PWNAGE: 2016 Robot

Nice bot guys!

Along with most of the people, im a little surprised that you aren't using swerve. Guess we'll have to see how our version of your swerve drive handles the competition. See you either today or over the next few days at STL!

Re: 2451 PWNAGE: 2016 Robot

Chalk another one up for an IL team who can do swerve who chose not to for this year's game...and also went tall. It's almost like we had the same thoughts when analyzing the game this year. Lol.

Looking forward to seeing you guys in action this weekend!
