I got it! I got it! They shakeup a bottle before a match then connect it to their pneumatics system for a boost in pressure. It also gives the exhaust from the cylinders a pleasant orange smell.

Re: pic: 179's pnumatic teaser

Behind the soda can there is a piston for the shifting mechanisim, i would think. However, are you using sunkist to keep the motors cold?

Either way it looks cool.

Re: pic: 179's pnumatic teaser

Is it just me...or does that can look like its blocking something...because they would've had to clean the can somehow, and you cant thread such thin aluminum...so obviously they are covering up something....

speaking of sunkist....*pop......guuuuuuulp....AAHHH!*

Re: pic: 179's pnumatic teaser

Re: pic: 179's pnumatic teaser

Well the sunkist is hiding up the transmission (my assumption due to the chains running out of the plates) and are being used to hide up the secret micro-EMP device that their robot will on any camera that tries to take a picture of it.

The pneumatic:hinged-pipe combo looks like a stabilizing leg that will be used in case your robot starts to lose control of the pop can.

Overall, a nice picture.
