That would have been a great second pick at almost any PNW district.

Re: Tem 973 Pruhzents: SKYSTALKER-ER

Maybe I'm just not seeing it, but what causes the ball to be pushed up and out the shooter? Is it the action of the intake folding in all the way that causes this, or is there a separate mechanism to push it upward when it's time to shoot?

Re: Tem 973 Pruhzents: SKYSTALKER-ER

That'll make an excellent finisher for sure

Have a quick look at your shot angles and speeds. If your shot accuracy is reasonable, there is one combination that will let you shoot from against the low goal (as shown), or from ~30" out from the low goal (one robot width). That last shot can be *really* useful against in a pushing match against defense!

There's a small wheel on the back (vertical) section, right about in the middle. If that isn't a "kick" device and/or shooting wheel, I'm not sure what it is... particularly with those Colsons sitting right behind the front frame looking suspiciously like a shooter.

Yup, it actually works with just the intake too. With some geometry tweaking it'd work pretty darn well with out the rear wheel, but currently there is too much compression in the intake portion so the rear wheel is a cheap band aid.

This whole robot was an exercise in prototyping primarily, the fact that we get to compete with two of them at one of the most competitive offseason events is just a bonus.

Re: Tem 973 Pruhzents: SKYSTALKER-ER

I've been wondering for a while...

What is up with 973's intake wheels?
Are those lego mindstorm wheels??

This is definitely the best FRC parody of an FRC parody I have seen.
