The noobies with prebuild chassis is a challenge too. But then again, it's a good thing for teams that are new, and getting started. |

Re: Biggest Challenge of '05
Well, more than simply giving the newbies simply a bolt together chassis, a 4 motor drive train transimission is included, reducing the advantage other teams have gained by using 4 and 6 motor drive trains in previous competitions. This helps FIRST two fold. It reduces the time intensive requirements rookie teams have had in the past developing a drive base for the first time, allowing for greater innovation and creativity for rookie teams. Additionally, it poses a greater challenge to veteran teams, inspiring kids to think up new ways to perform better, because even rookies will have powerful 4 motor drive train transmissions. But yes, the chassis and drive train components this year available to the rookie teams will certainly prove to be a challenge for vets.

Re: Biggest Challenge of '05
I think the most challenging part of this game is to come up with a mechanism that can handle one or more tetras and still be high enough to cap the middle goal. Also the coaches have a big part this year because they have to correspond with 2 teams instead of one and they still have to figure what is going on in the field.

Re: Biggest Challenge of '05
We built the kit bot yesterday
It isn't that great. The chassis flexes somethin' terrible. The tyranny is ok but the weight Fun toy though... |
