Go to Post While [a college FIRST competition] would be pretty fun, I think that you'll see this build season that mentoring is a heck of a lot of fun too. (except when the kids pretend to cut their fingers off to see your reaction) - Beth Sweet [more]

The Best Q&A Ever!
Q: Can we attach a motorcycle horn to our robot? If we can, are there any special considerations about when it can make noise or other paticular rules that would be esay to overlook with it?


A:A motorcycle horn is obnoxious and annoying. Any robot with such a device will be subjected to multiple 10 kV static discharges until it is writhing in robotic pain. It is also a violation of 7.13.2.


Ahh, FIRST is still awesome.

Those in FIRST also have a great sense of humor.

Let's just hope Dean doesn't have to bring out his 10 kV static discharge machine................unless your battery is starting to run low during a match!
