same here. that and how heavy is it.

Would it be a safe assumption to say that it looks like the top lifts up around 8 inches higher with four pistons?

[DavidGitz]

I don't know, the frame looks like fiberglass extrusion to me. If that's what it is it is probably pretty light.

[Ed Sparks]

110 Lbs total, all aluminum.

The top extends from 17" to 22" and serves to extend the "Platform". Our intent was to serve as a ramp to help others score the extended points. Not sure about the ramp part now .......

I'm thinking about starting a contest to see who can guess the total number of holes in the entire robot.

We won't be competing at Peachtree next week, but we should have some scou..., I mean representatives there

[JamesCH95]

Holey robot batman!

[Ed Sparks]

I think I'll name it "The Cheese Grater".

Go get the Cheese Grater ...........
Where's the Cheese Grater ........... ?
Has the Cheese Grater been inspected yet ..........?
Did you swap batteries on the Cheese Grater .........?

Don't bring any cheese to Peachtree or we'll grate it !


Yea, that works.

Yes, it kicks very well. There are 4 kick modes, all pneumatic. We can kick the length of the field if required. We actually had to add a second regulator to slow it down a little bit.
