Nice! Have you tried it after putting all the "stuff" on top of the robot? It makes it more interesting.

I'm not sure what "stuff" you're referring to. The only changes that have been done to the robot are adding the bumpers since this movie was taken. We're a low buff pushing machine.

Then it should be ok. Bumpers will only move the cg up a tad.

Looks nice and solid

Have you guys flown over it yet? I was only there for going over the bump a few times, but if we hit it full speed, we literally flew over, I have a video somewhere here...

I got just a little nervous at 0:08, 0:18, and 0:25.

Look forward to seeing 114 at SVR this year.

It makes quite the thunking noise when it goes over, but it's one of the toughest bot's these kids have ever put together. Their chassis is all 1x1x.125, and the whole thing is put together with Grade 8 bolts and heavy duty brackets. They've really built a heck of a machine, and we couldn't be more proud of them.
