Hey, that DOES fit in the box... it's just not legal since most of the robot was from 2007, and the vacuum part isn't really attached to it.


Speaking of size, we always cut it close, so we've decided to make our chassis smaller this year.

They're the craziest teams out there, basically. Anybody got actual numbers for a record time of a bot (aside from one day that is, I mean a good bot).

ot:

On the subject of one-day-'bots, 675's built one. Except it was the day before ship, made from whatever we could scrounge up and built in a few hours. The downside? Well, it didn't work. I think it disintegrated, actually. I'll have to check with weaver though, I wasn't on the team at the time.

I remember at the Championship Event last year, there was one team who arrived to discover that their bot had accidentally been shipped home instead of to Atlanta. They joined forces with some teams from neighboring pits and built a brand-new robot which they used to compete- and it actually worked pretty well, too. I still can't believe they managed to do that- talk about some serious teamwork!

The 2007 robot (the one that was altered in the picture) definitely would NOT be able to stand up to flying trackballs.

The robot we're actually working on for 2008 should be pretty robust.
