Re: Team 968 Teaser #1

i like shiny....

anyway i think that their robot is going to probably be a dumper since it makes no sense to have a shooter using a cylinder that wide. It is too wide for its own good and wouldn't be capable of quickly pushing the ball since it has more volume and therefore would take longer to fill then a thinner one. Rather it seems to be going for power over speed.

I respectfully disagree about making a shooter cylinder that wide; it actually works quite well at a fairly high rate of fire.

I have a feeling something very similar to their 2006 Robot will be making a re-debut this year.
