Three pounds?
That wouldn't even qualify for Lego League!

yes, but i'd be willing to bet it could rip a Lego 'bot to shreds...i've seen those things, and they can be fiece (think doberman the size of a chiuahua)

Very nice looking robot, kinda reminds me of good ole Sunny D, redone. I wish you guys luck this year, it looks great.

[Koko Ed]

This is how she looks now.
She almost done.


We took X-WhAAAt!!! out of storage to spar with our practice bot X-O Uh-Oh! After watching the Winter Warzone and watching offensive effcient bots get beat down that we needed to get good at dealing with physical interaction with taller bots.
I took video of all the fun as well.

Well we were pretty happy with the performance of the little bot today at the Rochester Rally. It performed pretty consistently and we were able to test and make shots from every starting position without the use of the Camera ( since it was cut off to be placed on the Final bot) For a bunch of parts hobbed together with a bunch of c-clamps and a lot of duct tape it was working well on field of competitors.
