Re: pic: 379's test chassis and trailor on FRP
In the video, we have four individually driven "slick wheels". No bumpers yet, sorry. And in this case, we are all wearing safety glasses because the robot is running.
We will be testing a wide chassis today and adding weight for a more realistic evaluation. |

We're lucky to have a smaller field area - we'd have had to buy twice as much if we were constructing a full field like we've done at the old facility since our inception. It's not a bad deal when you consider how many other local teams will use the practice area before (and after) ship. I'm sure other teams and organizations who build larger practice facilities and share with others arrive at the same conclusion. Last edited by Travis Hoffman : 12-01-2009 at 15:00. |

Didn't you get the memo that the batteries are always on the edge of exploding when they are not in use?!?!?! They are made from plutonium & thus highly unstable. Don't dare breathe near them or risk a catastrophe with a 3-alarm biohazard alert!! Edit: Btw, I forgot my sarcasm tags here... My bad! Last edited by Elgin Clock : 12-01-2009 at 15:44. |

Re: pic: 379's test chassis and trailor on FRP
no you just were safety glasses around the robot to start with runing or not, if you do it in the shop (or build location) you do it at events safety shouldn't be an act that we whip out at regionals but should be practiced at all times...
