Re: 842 Kicker On Bot

Sweet kicker! Falconmaster, my husband is looking over my shoulder and wants to know what material your frame is made of (it looks very student friendly for fabrication)?

Falconmaster,
Very impressive as always! If you guys keep up this progress you'll have a full 3 weeks of practice with that guy!

Congrats and keep up the good work.

Re: 842 Kicker On Bot

Nicely done. I like the wide kick area... I have a feeling your driver(s) will be verrry good at mechanum-spinning 90degrees to kick by the end of the season.

Re: 842 Kicker On Bot

Wow guys thats a great kicker. Truth be told I've studied all of the videos you have posted regarding your kicker designs and they have helped my team a lot. I'd like to say, first, congrats on the amazing design, and second, thank you for all the video resources that have helped us out. GOOD LUCK AT COMPETITION!

Yeah, we'll be there with both our bots. A large portion of our team will be missing due to other school stuff...
