Something tells me that its shooter blows the muzzle velocity limit to pieces...

But I have no doubts about its defensive capabilities.

Lighten it up a little to bring it in under the 120 pound weight limit, and I think you will have something there!

Could this be a hint for next year's game? Before the Championship, even?!

Geeze, Dave, I think you're slipping.

Re: pic: Next years robot

Whoah! Why'd you guys steal 1517's robot?

Backstory: At BAE 1517 had quite the drive system. Great use of tank treads (which happens very rarely in FIRST). One problem. They tipped in every match on Friday. So on saturday they unbolted their shooter mechanism (which accounted for all of their weight above 8", and replaced it with a spray painted cardboard box to look like a tank (I'll see if I have any pictures of it).

Ya see, here in New England, we take our defense wicked seriously.

Re: pic: Next years robot

When I saw this picture I thought someone from 1511 posted it.

That turret looks pretty effective though. All you have to do is get FIRST to keep the poof balls take out the 12 m/s rule next year, and you'll be all set.
