This robot looks awesome!

Great job Zac and company. Looking forward to seeing this in person at Orlando. You should bring the practice bot over to Swamps place. We will be practicing there.

I'm assuming 801 and 1592 partnered up again this year.
We really enjoyed working with 1592 last year.

Looking forward to the video.
Gorgeous machine

Haha definitely!

I'm REALLY excited to be able to see both of these robots at FLR in a few weeks, as well as hang out with the folks behind the robots.

Should be a great time!

The kids deserve all the credit. Without them none of it would have been possible. They put in a lot of hard work this year to make sure we got them out in time for powder coating like we used to. For the tenth year we had to. Cant wait to see more of what 1251 has in store for this year I heard you had a lot of late nights trying to get a couple of bots finished. Hopefully we can make it over there to get a little practice in before the comp.


@lynca

The discobots where amazing to work with last year on and off the field. To bad we aren't going to the same competitions again this year. We could have helped another team out again. =) Cant wait to see what you guys come up with this year.


@Akash

You mean the boom is there for a reason? =) I knew you would like the other colors better xD and looking forward to it.

@Drew
Yeah defiantly come on by. Ill Be down your way week 6 to ref. You and David will have to show me around.

Yeah the kids are really excited. We have heard great things about the regional, have a lot of friends up there and some of them are hoping to see snow for the first time. Oh yeah and we are making a little side trip to the falls.
