Re: Old Robots?

Hello...

So far we've kept all of ours, although the 2005 robot had a couple of spare parts taken off as backups for competition this year (since returned to it).

Our lead teacher has a thing about keeping and saving them (but is not beyond using them during competetion for parts). The 2005 robot is the only robot that has Pneumatics so thats another good reason to keep it intact.
We will use all three for demos this year and the 2007 one will be used
for off season events later in the year. All three are also used for teaching
and reference sources. We plan to build another robot off season for testing
such things as Mecanum wheels and programming. Doing these things helps
the students we have keep up on stuff and helps recruit new students to
the program.

During the build season this year the 2005 robot was used for testing
programming and the 2006 robot not only used for programming, but
driven on our playing feild while practicing with the 2007 robot to give
the drivers more of a feel for competiton. The former driver for team 616
(Kyle J.) drove our 2006 one and knows very well what to do.
He's a mentor for us now and we greatly appreciate what He does for us.
