Go to Post My point is that there seems to be a trend in FIRST in which people are saying "who cares about the robots, let's inspire the students." What I'm saying is, it's the robots that inspire the students. - Chris Hibner [more]

Re: Defense: Pushing and Blocking

Our defense is simply pushing. With our wheels, and our 2 speed, we can race up to an opponent, and push just about anyone across the whole field. If somone is out of range, they can't score, correct?

Re: Defense: Pushing and Blocking

Where's the "We could go either way" option?

we have a multi-speed transmission, and should be able to push fairly easily. I've noticed a number of robots using casters, holonomic or omni wheels, which could prove very easy to push. We intend to test different strategies and go with what works best.
