Robot ideas

[arbershametaj]

I am sorry if I am going to break anyone’s dreams
BUT
Defensive robots are no help. in the past years they mostly get in your way since they are so engaged with defense, now I am not saying that they are they are not helpful but its allot more efficient to build something average that score onto the low and middle legs since if you have been part of FIRST for at least three years you already have these robots build.

A as a last note lifting robots at the end of the match will probably be useless since most teams will no be able to lift or be lifted they will spend most of they time being in your way so it would be very hard to come back.
Pay more attention to the rule that says if you are on an opponent’s home zone at the end the opponent gets 10 point as a penalty, now wouldn’t it be easier to use a high pushing robot to push your opponents onto your home zone and get the 10 point bonus since FIRST really likes those bumpers and pushing has become a big part of the game.

So reminder
1. Just defense robots are not useful at all
2. to avoid number one build a robot wit an average manipulator that’s able to score on low and middle since its already been done
3. A powerful robot at the end of the match would prove the difference between no bonus points and 10 bonus points, and hey if all three of the opposite alliance is caught that’s 30 points

Sorry my post was so long I hope I made some good points and I was helpful
Good luck in 2007 and look in the past sometimes there is the answer
