 By the end of the year, I have a feeling that I'm going to know much, much more about the intricacies of orbit balls than I ever wanted to. - Jared Russell [more] |

Re: We're DOne for sure!
hmmm....80 points would be 10 laps in 2 minutes with a hurdle on every lap. So, that means 1 lap every 12 seconds. The distance around the track at its shortest dimension is about 70 feet (30 or so for each long side, and 5 or so for each sort side). That means a speed of about 6 feet per second with instant acceleration, perfect turns, and perfect action of the manipulator. Possible, but not likely in just 10 days (even for a team of pros).
Also, it sounds from your post that this light-speed development stems from a one year project. That sounds like minor tweaks to mechanisms or designs that existed before kickoff....hmmmm -JEE
