Building Playing Fields

[chinckley]

We have the light above the hole.
We also have a piece of diamond plate to put on part of our ramp
to try.

Have you been running your robot on the playing field yet?
We have a basic robot ready to run on it: no hopper, shooter or collector.

RAGE is one of a lucky few teams able to build a full size playing field and house it permanantly for the year, until next year when we will build a new field. We have an old warehouse donated to us and build our field in there. We are always willing to open up our facility and field to any teams willing/wanting to come to visit our facility and use our field.

Like RAGE, NiagaraFIRST (1114, 1503, 1680) is very lucky. We are building a full size field, and we have almost completed it. There is a closed elementary school nearby, that the school board has given us permission to use for our playing fields every year.

Our field is being built out of wood donated to us by one of our sponsors.

we have our corner and high goals done and we have already done test with the goal we are storing our goals in the lab during free time the guys will take the nerf balls and throw them through the goals but they are not as good as the robot tho

To be exact cyber blue 234 has built a full 11ft wide platform, a complete human player station, and the complete upper goal. It seems that if you build a smaller version of the platform it would be harder to get the full feel and understanding of the field.
