Re: Team 71's 2002 robot

Our team had to go up against the Bionic Bulldogs (60) that year in the Finals at SVR - the robot that team 60 built would grab two goals in the first few seconds of each match and your only defense against them was to beat them there. One team rebuilt their gearing to try and basically ram 60 as hard as they could in teh first few moments of the match. During the lunch break on Friday at SVR, team 60 did a demo for a news crew where they grabbed both goals, lifted them, and then spun them at about 60 rpm. Quite a sight, however they never spun them during match play. |

Re: Team 71's 2002 robot
They spun 'em in L.A., at least.
I do know of at least one team that could have beaten them despite losing the race to the goals, though. 330 was capable (tested in a practice match, both agreeing) of shoving 60 under the right conditions, like with 330's 3rd goal grabber close to the floor. (It was a wedge with a hole cut for pipes, and still has the scratches from that practice match.) |

The good 'ol wayback machine came to the rescue again. From the competition manual in terms of scoring

Re: Team 71's 2002 robot
I like thinking about previous years games with LARGE objects that we moved around with the robots and had to interacts with the pieces. The giant "puck", the 3 goals in 02, the tetertotter.... things that were easy but not easy to move.

Re: Team 71's 2002 robot
Oh how I love these types of threads.
We get veteran members of the FIRST community coming in and sharing their wisdom of FIRST history. It's always nice to hear stories from back before I was really involved. 2002 was my first year, as a spectator, in FIRST. |
