Here's a Little background on Team 379:
(1st regional)Cleveland-28th/42
(2nd)Detroit-16th/33
(3rd)Philly-8th/46
We started off a little rough as I'm sure everyone did with it being the first regional. As we progressed we were getting auto mode 10 Pt's every time. We were ranked 8th out of 46 teams in Philly moving up to 6th during alliance selections and have been picking or picked during these 3 regionals for alliances. We are a very strong defensive robot when need to be and we also score in the side goals. We can be in low gear to play defense and in high gear to shoot across the field to collect balls or score. We are about 13.5 ft/sec in high gear and 4 ft/sec low gear. We have custom built transmissions with a pneumatic shifter for high and low gear with treads. We have pushed 2 robots at the same time in Philly and can easily get up onto the ramp at the end. We can load by HP but prefer to drive around and pick up balls on the floor. Auto mode we start in the first position and drive straight out to the side goal and dump 10. If Need be we can shoot across the field to stop other robots from scoring. This is just a little bit about our robot, so if anyone has any questions about our robot you can post here or PM me and I will respond to you as soon as possible. And if you are looking for a reliable and powerful robot don't forget to check us out. Team 379, hope to hear from people soon.
This looks like a great strong division. Lets go out there and show them that we are the best, robot performance wise and team spirit. Good luck to everyone in our division as well as every other division. Hope to see everyone having a blast in Atlanta and hope to be hearing from some of you soon.
