team 180? 183?

[Michelle Celio]

Ok, I dug through some old stuff I got from 1065.

Here's what I've come up with. (We're talking 2004 Robots, I hope).
In the background, 1083

Background once more, 1068.




I'll keep looking...I thought I had some left over 186 stuff. ><

A list of teams who competed at the Florida Regional in 2004. I'm not sure which are Florida Teams, or what Florida Teams didn't attend the regional, but hopefully the list will help. Process of elimination anyone?

Yes, but that doesn't meet gorilla's timeframe of being given the robot when his team organized in 2005.

not 1065 or 1068 it could be 2000 on the robot it has 2 cim motors and drill motors


i dont know how old it was when they gave it to us


you should see how it throws the grappling hook there's a piece of pvc attached to a moving arm that pulls forward somehow and springs back with surgical tubing and throws that hook which is reeled in by a window motor we never got to see it work because it was not working when they gave it to us(i really want to get it working but everyone else on the team wants the other old robots working)


i think it was from 2000 because that was the year the championship was at epcot and one of our metors son was on that team and they somehow got the robot when they started team 1557 we will all know for sure on thursday night

There were no CIM motors in 2000 though, so unless they retrofitted them on there 2004 is a better option.

[Greg Needel]

if you guys have never messed with it any chance you can just look at the dip switches on the RC. 2004 was the last year teams had to set their numbers that way. I am assuming from your description that you haven't done much with it and in that case i would bet their team number would still be the one set there.

Same thing goes for the OI, it should have the team number listed on it.

[gorrilla]

i can find out the team number tomorrow its on the side of the robot too i just havent got a picture of it and if i knew the team number i would still not know what happened to this team it would be really funny if they were still around

Yup, sounds like 2004. That was the year of the turnover to CIMs

[gorrilla]

delete, nvm

186 did host raucous in 2004 at Gateway high school, i remember that, our mentor almost got into a fistfight with another team

as for waht happened with 1068, they have merged with 665, 1068 used to be the edgewater high team,

i wonder what ever happened to team 762 from lake Brantley high school, they built their 2004 robot spending under $800 and finishing in the top 8.... thats what you call a budget team,

1402 did a presentation for your school board in late 2004, i remember us driving up there on a Wednesday, that Friday, we did the same presentation for what is now team 1649

oh, btw: if you were wondering, here is the link to the elimination matches back from the 2004 florida regional

i downloaded those but i was looking on SOAP and i couldent find any other videos but from 2008

186 was SPAM's alliance captain when they won the 2002 Florida regional (along with MiM). One of their mentors, Andy (I've gone stupid on his last name) was on the Florida Regional Committee and was the emcee at the 2004 Florida Regional. I've lost touch with them but I have seen some of their mentors involved with other teams.
