If my memory serves me correct (I really should remember this...) we got picked in the later half of the first round, and lost in the quarters due to our teammates shooter breaking catastrophically in the first match. In 2007 by the end of GTR we had a competitive robot that would have done well in Atlanta, but we had already been to 3 competitions and turned down our invitation to the Championship (from our EI award in New Hampshire).

I must say last years robot was probably their best built robot yet, and had their best drive team in years. Josh was a dominating driver and could have done really well in Atlanta. If this year's drive team is nearly as good, watch out Rochester and Waterloo!

Re: Team 610 Coyobot XI

The Coyobots always have such effective robots. I remember I LOVED your 08 shooter, the 07 arm, and your 09 dumper. You guys always manage to pick the most efficient and effective designs so I am sure this will do just as well, if not better. Best of luck.

Coyobots also always look really wicked, this bot doesn't fall short of expectations.

Re: Team 610 Coyobot XI

Does it rear up like that to climb on the platform?

Looks like it didn't quite make it in the video. Looks like it would be hard to get positioned sideways on the bump like that.

You hit the nail on the head. The whole point of lifting the front wheels was to climb onto the platform from the bump. But turning on the bump has proven to be *very* difficult. An oversight on our part when attempting this strategy. We have an idea to help with this maneuver that is still in the works.

Yup, you were picked 6th overall by 395. Got knocked out by the eventual division champs of 503, 451 and 1139.
