Re: pic: Spam 180 robot

Personally, out of all the robots I have seen so far, this one is one of my favorites. S.P.A.M. has "two" 4wd. One that makes them go forward and backward and the other that allows them to move side to side. Their fan makes them incredibly fast and they run away from you like no tomorrow. They are also able to push you around. The fan puts out 10lbs of thrust. Their scoring mechanism is very cool as well. It has little "fingers" that picks up the ball and keeps it in until they want to score it. They are very fast as scoring as well. Their fan doesn't really deflect the balls as they don't turn the fan on unless they are trying to run away from others or trying to push them around. I would be very surprised if they decide that the fan is illegal on this machine. I can't wait to see it in action again.

Well..........looks like S.P.A.M. has outdone itself again, and built a fantastic machine. I can hardly wait to see how well it does. Great job!
Good luck this season. I wish we were going to be in Florida to see and compete with you.
