Re: [FTC]: Final countdown to Atlanta...

FTC 25 is writing new autonomous codes and fixing some drivetrain issues, nothing too major. We're definitely looking forward to seeing everyone there!

Re: [FTC]: Final countdown to Atlanta...

Team Unlimited (FTC #1) is all ready to attend, with several needed tweaks preformed, we are just in the practicing stage to get the final preparations and testing done.

Can't wait to see everyone in Atlanta!

P.S. I will be doing a similar scouting program as last year, so I will be making a new thread within the next week asking teams for scouting information about their robot. Again, I will making it a publically available format (in the Microsoft Access and also as a downloadable .pdf) so that everyone will be able to get the data in a clean format.

Re: [FTC]: Final countdown to Atlanta...

Twisted Bots, 177, will be there! We're working on updating the auto code and a few other adjustments. Unfortunately, Twisted Bots 2, 3165, won't be there. We don't have enough people to run two teams in Atlanta. Looking forward to seeing everyone down there!

Re: [FTC]: Final countdown to Atlanta...

iLITE will be there. Our lead teacher kept wondering why we kept getting the FTC championship emails from FIRST, only to call last week and discover we qualified. One of the kids did a back flip in celebration, lol, it was litterally like one of those deals that's too good to be true (but it really was). Luckily many of our FTC kids are already going with the FRC team to Atlanta, so they'll see you there!

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.

Re: [FTC]: Final countdown to Atlanta...

I got an e-mail saying "You are invited" and I thought that meant our team was invited, then I realized we were invited to watch. Oh well, we took our robot apart already anyway.

Good luck with the rebuild. Too bad you guys didn't make it in time for the practice tournament at Thornlea on Thursday. Let us know if you need help with anything.

Re: [FTC]: Final countdown to Atlanta...

Team 2818 (G-Force) will be there.
We've revamped auto to eliminate all the motor controller glitces. Plus we've added a power reset switch that let's us turn on 12v power at the start of auto and do a remote reset during teleop.
We're feeling pretty good about our chances and are hoping to be on some great alliances.
We suspect that our puck pickup will get a workout this competition

Finally! Our team began travelling to Atlanta today... I'm posting this from a hotel in North Carolina after driving for over 12 hours. Tomorrow we'll drive the remaining 4 hours to get to Atlanta.
