I apologize for the bragging that I seemed to have presented to other teams, and the confusion that is has caused. The way I presented the information was, agreed on by a few other students and I. It was meant to be funny, in a non-boosting way. We saw all the other teams, posting messages about their robot in a more serious form, and wanted to lighter perspective.
Anyway, to clear some things up, we have a well working tread base that is fairly fast. In fact on it’s first test drive; Andy Baker took a little flight off the Bridge, because the bridge didn’t have time to react to its velocity. As anticipated by many teams, we do still have a transmission that allows us to change gear ratios during a match. We can go through the Fence which seems to be now problem, since we have treads and the robot is 11 ¾ inches high. It has two grippers that can grab and handle the goals or the stretcher. We will also have the capability to handle both size balls at the competitions. This is all I have the time to tell you for now, I will be posting more messages at later dates.
Phil
