FLL robot Video.

[Ian Curtis]

Hi everyone,
I did a video of my FLL team's robot. I think it turned out alright and would like to know what others think of it. Thanks!

Video can be found here (4mb file) (scroll down a little bit):

Holy moly!
Your robot was crazy. How long did it take you to do all those missons? What was your final score?

[Ian Curtis]

Depending on when the other robot scores the center goal, about 405 points (about 80 percent of the time). We can get everything done on a good run, when nothing goes wrong, in about 2 minutes.

Wow... Simply amazing.

... all the teams I have mentored throughout the high school haven't been able to show me something like this. Talk about some middle schoolers putting effort in FLL.

Anyone else have any other comments?
I know the audio isn't synced but I really like the song and wanted the missions to go in order. Also if you stop by the FLL pits there will be an interactive version with statistics and such. I really do appreciate all feedback.

From my understanding, I thought that you could only take one ball out of your base at once, but I could be very wrong. This is an incredible robot. You just came up with very unique ways to accomplish the tasks without being too fancy; I liked it a lot. The robot is extremely fast at the tasks and the falling down thing at the end is just incredible. Good luck at nationals.

There was much discussion over this topic. The FLL god that is Scott Evans (head world ref) decided that it was allowed through a loophole. However several conditions had to be fulfilled. A month or so ago a final ruling came through that seperate carts would be allowed no matter what the circumstances to avoid refferreing (I know thats spelled wrong) headaches.
