Does team 1251 have a pic of their robot?

[Josh Drake]

There was a picture on CD a little while back. There is also some video of them at the Florida Regional. Impressive as always. I like their name too... Tech Tigers!

Kind of a broad question don't you think

Its a hurdler, 2 speed with a max of ~16.5 fps. 2 stage elevator with a pneumatic claw gripper.

343 is a hurdler also with 1 or hopefully 2 balls off in autonumus w/ 3 to 4 lines 1 speed 3 to 4 hurdles a round a ball knocker a hurder and some what of a rabbit w/ 2 omnis on back and we do all of those areas well we have great grip on the ball cya at palmetto Does any one have any other questions

[Boydean]

Team 2430 just can't wait to get to Clemson.

Wish ever one well.

just to correct... we would NOT be considered in the herder or rabbit category, we just happen to be fast (12-13fps) and can pick up a ball well. in hybrid, the second ball needs a lot of work, but at the current point in time, we can consistantly score 20-24 points in hybrid. if you saw peachtree, you saw that we hurdled backward, but now we are going to install a ball punch to hurdle forward, and hopefully faster.

Anything that will theoretically increase your efficiency is always a plus 1251 did some work as well, in one of our matches at Florida our claw took a good hit and broke (thank goodness for spares), but we beefed it up a bit in hopes to make it better.

yeah... i think we have two or three spares of our tusks... b/c ours got bent up a couple of times, but it wasn't bad we just bent them back

I hope I didn't break it . We kept breaking our forks, so we didn't get to shoot as often as we'd like. We plan to strengthen the brackets and hopefully leave the defense to others, although it was fun beating pink and 1251 around.
