Re: The Robonauts present the making of Arsenal

Absolutely amazing to see what team 118 has been able to do this year. The number of prototypes that your team built in order to get to their final design is absolutely astounding and should be an inspiration to us all. To think that your team tested a 3 ball auto routine with a drivetrain, on day 15, is absolutely mindblowing, as many members on my team were doubting the viability of even a 2 ball auto. Thanks a billion for sharing the blog as it really shows the next level approach that a team has to have to be so successful in FRC. Would it be possible for you to share how your team approaches kickoff, as I feel like this is where our team struggles the most in deciding what to build for the year?

If you squint your eyes you can even see a student once or twice!

Very cool! I love how the whiteboard slowly moves to the practice field and just slowly floats around everywhere!

Re: The Robonauts present the making of Arsenal

Thanks for posting the video and build blog - great insights to how such a successful team operates.

You have such a large team; how do you find tasks for all students to work on? It seems like you build two complete robots each year, plus Everybot, and all the field elements. How are the students assigned to these tasks?

Maybe I'm just underestimating the amount of work the above entail..
