If i remeber correctly... Work was still being done on the Beast up until they threw us outa the pits, and i dont think it actualy got signed off on for inspection until first thing the next morning because one of the inspectors didn't like the lack of neatness in the wiring (i dont rember a rule about wiring neatness). The autonomous was being tested and tweaked in the pits on thursday night after most of their team left. Thats when a few lucky people got to see the big thing move (and we all flinched when that arm swung the first few times).

Team hammon is cool

yeah, the engineers stayed and wiretied a buncha stuff and such, but the students all had to leave due to this stupid the team has to stay together thing, and our bus was leaving... we did tech review and they told us to fix up the wires and they'd recheck in the morning... so the engineers stayed til 8 making everything all neat for the judges

grrr. we (pit crew) wanted to stay til 8 too.

461 is also cool, hehe, we always seem to be cheering for you guys.... no idea why or anything.... just kiddin!!!!

Hmm this will be most interesting seeing how Team # 71 and # 234 are both in the Curie Division @ Nats. We could possibly have an Arm vs. Arm match

I'd like to see a match of all (or at least 4, I think there are more) the flailers together.. I think 71 and 234 are the only two in Curie though

71 and 234, very impressive arms. Team 148 has a very slick arm too, able to take out 4-5 stacks, possibly more. They have a preview of it at:

So as of now we'll see at least 3 armbots doing battle. I wish you all the best. We'll be looking forward to competing with you all in Curie.


Cyber Blue we really enjoyed seeing you guys down in VA and competing with you guys there. You don't happen to remember 395, 2TrainRobotics do you?
