You are both correct.

T190 has a similar design to last year in terms of our "kid". It is what FIRST considers the "minimum configuration" of a robot.. i.e. the robot controller, the battery, and the light with wires to make it go and your team numbers. We designed a removable device with all these things last year to use on the stretcher for a lightweight robot. This year we designed it so that time's when the robot didn't function and we needed time to work on it (Like our first match friday) we could still go out and earn 10 points, yet not lose those precious minutes on the robot. All the guts fit inside a solid box that we stick in the corner.. the light turns and it has a grand time

Our real robot is an on-the-fly 2-goal grabber... we have a 'large mechanism' , also known as our ball collector and hopper on top, which we didn't utilize due to weight restraints (we had to remove the hopper to stay under weight).

Both the Kid and Gompei2k2 we'll be ready to roll in San Jose in a couple weeks.. see ya there!
