Re: Beachbots 330 flip/recovery gifs

I wonder if they designed their robot with the intention of being able to get back up when they fell over.
They definitely seem to have practiced it -- to execute the maneuver that flawlessly twice can't possibly be unpracticed.

Question to any 330 members in the audience: Do you guys do astronaut level training or something? Throw 5 different problems at the drivers at once and see how they handle it? Or maybe... Maybe the drivers are robots too! 330 was bored with the standard FRC challenge and decided to up their game with robot drivers.
It is my honest opinion that 330 has the best drivers in all of first. I was lucky enough to drive with them at the 2015 Ventura Regional, the composure and skill shown by there drivers was nearly unbelievable. Happy to see them win, they deserve it.

I believe you accidentally linked the same gif twice.
