Go to Post The "line" is the point at which we've raised the floor so high that the advanced teams are hitting the ceiling. The ceiling is pretty darned high (and the GDC keeps raising it), so I don't think we're in danger of that any time soon. - EricVanWyk [more]

That looks like a steel frame in this picture, how heavy is just your frame alone?

Re: pic: Meet our kicker
just to play the "whats in the background game" did any one notice that the bumpers are on upsidedown?

Yeah that's a happy mistake. Since the 07 cal games we've had an upside down bumper. The first one was an accident we colored in the numbers upside down so we were SL9 instead of 675. And ever since we just somehow manage to keep it going. Even when we double and triple check. Go figure

Really appreciate it. we probably have one of the smallest non rookie teams out there so we take all the support we can get. we have 11 students and 7 mentors. That is our team. lol. Again, thanks for the support.

Hey I totally understand that, my freshmen year it was literally like 5 students and our advisor back in aim high. But of course I like to follow others outside around the nation. Have any questions or anything you need help or would likw a second opinion on don't hesitate to ask. 675 has got your back.

By any chance does your robot have difficulty turning in place?

I ask because it looks like your mecanum wheels are not in the standard "O on bottom/X on top" configuration...
