Hey Raul, I don't know what you're finding so hard. 217, 148, 1114, and 254 pics are just as easy to find as 111 pics ... oh, wait ... never mind

[FatBabyJezus]

Never mind the bumpers...

Sizing box? Weight limit? Only powered by the battery, pneumatics, springs, and/or stored energy? Designed to play Lunacy?

Please note that there is no Team 217 Teaser #4 and don't hold your breath waiting for one. We will show a picture of our robot (full disclosure) after it is wired and looks all pretty.

I can tell you this: our robot has more chrome than the one Raul has pictured in this thread. I can also tell you that we are using 8 motors, 6 encoders, the camera and over 1,000 rivets ....

I know rivets are awesome, but a thousand. Can't wait to see your bot.

We used over a thousand rivets last year...but I think only a couple hundred were on the robot at one time

Can't wait to see the finished product, Paul!

I swear we used over 1000 rivets taking things on and off, on and off, on and off, etc.
I bought out 3 hardware stores for $200.00.

I hope you have one of these.

Probably have about 100 rivets on our bot

But I wish we had more. That tool is far too much fun!

If we're talking random vehicles with "217" on them, I prefer the 217 car pulling the camper trailer in that video of a race in England posted in a CD thread I can't seem to find. Hilarious stuff.

I imagine the attachment in this post would be a good start in verifying Paul's rivet claims.

Knowing 217, it's probably a transformer....don't be alarmed.

We like to take it easy on our software guys.

[MrForbes]

We have 4 encoders and the software guys have gotten one to work
