Definitely the most impressive westwood machines in your team history. Congrats to your group for progressing significantly ! Its great to see 2583 using sheet metal. Your pickup mechanism is pretty unique and your 30 point climber method looks awesome.
Congrats on the design, see you at Alamo ! |

Great video! It inspires two thoughts:
1) We have got to start playing night games in FIRST 2) What do the neighbors think about all the frisbees in their yard? |

Re: 2583-The Robowarriors presents Valkyrie
Lucky for us our garage is on a corner, so we are almost never worried about going into other yards. There is also a large tree preventing frisbees from going into the road (most of the time), which has also saved us numerous times.
So really, we got very lucky with our 'outdoor field' placement ![]() |
