Including the battery, which was about 12-13 lbs. The size was 30" x 36" x 5'.
The robots to watch out for that year were the blockers/sliders. They needed a strong partner to be competitive in eliminations, but in quals would be game-changing. They'd get on the bar first and not allow anybody else up without permission. They all had weaknesses, but those were hard to exploit in most cases. If one of those got up on the bar before you did, they had 50 points and you'd have a hard time getting your 50 points, plus your partner had the same problem and their partner didn't. Ouch.
