2789 - 2013 Highlight Reel
So there are plenty of teams that have cranked out a reveal video...this year, we've decided to make a highlight reel of our regional action as we head into our first trip to champs. This has been an incredible year for us, and I would like to specifically thank the following Texas teams who over the past five years have inspired us to not only build better robots and be competitive, but have also inspired us with their genuine Texas-sized gracious professionalism and willingness to help our team and other teams find their way in the greater FIRST community.
57 118 148 418 624 704 1296 1477 2158 2468 2587 4063 4271 4610 And 16 (even though they're from Arkansas, but to whom we'll bestow honorary Texan status lol) Here's the video! http://youtu.be/GlmPfK3gRvo or you can also click on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlmPfK3gRvo&safe=active Thanks to our team's executive officer, Stella for putting this together! |

Nice video!
For a defensive team to win two regionals and be finalists at another is a testament to the robot they built and the drivers they have. See you guys at CMP, and shut down the competition. |

Nice job, TEXplosion! I've heard a lot of things about you but it's nice to see the robot in action.
Newton better be careful - you're gonna shut 'em down! |

That's some hardcore defense. What's your drivetrain like?

Re: 2789 - 2013 Highlight Reel
Thanks! We use #4cims to direct drive 4 slip wheels in tank drive...I argued for higher traction wheels, but was shown why that was a bad idea...Of course, our driver and the amazing data our scouting team collects has a lot to do with the defense, too

Fun Fact: TEXplosion has nothing but love for the Discobots. 2587 is the first team to ever accept an alliance invitation from 2789. Last edited by 2789_B_Garcia : 18-04-2013 at 01:19. |

Re: 2789 - 2013 Highlight Reel
You guys are hilarious. Interacting with your students on twitter honestly brightens my day. I am nothing special in the grand scheme of things, but "The Crew" makes me feel like a million bucks.

Bobby and Texplosion - Great Video.
You were instrumental to our success at Alamo and our detriment at Hub City. Good luck to you guys at Championships. |

Re: 2789 - 2013 Highlight Reel
We're on the planning committee and help run the event, so you know we'll be there in full force! This year's TRR will be fun given the fact that we've seen great robots compete at all four Texas events, and it'll really be something to see them all competing under the same roof!
