haha, just kidding. our robut, Capek, is standing on its hind legs because that's the position it starts each round in. and yes, we are aware that our robot is ugly, so BACK OFF

I disagree with anyone who calls this design ugly. It is, like others have said, a very beautiful design. Why beautiful? Because out of all the robots I've seen, it's the most simple design (possibly the simplest i've ever seen).

Well we are a rookie team, and a very very small one at that. With 13 total people, and only 4/5 people actively working on the bot we decided to go with a simple bot that did 1 thing well. We collect balls if you didn't figure that out, we can fit like 5-7 balls before we have to come back to deposit, tho it gets touchy to drive at max capcity.
Well we haven't actually weighed it yet, but comparing to my seven yr old sis, I would say no more than 80-85 lbs. On Monday it was probably around 70 lbs, fully loaded. We added a good bit of stuff in the past couple of days to fix up the issues we found when were at the DC scrim. Some structural problems, some ball control issues (hence the paddle thing), and some flex in our legs when we did our drop.

If it is designed to fall at the beginning of the match, and I'm guessing it is, then be very sure to secure EVERYTHING on that electronics board.
I have seen this similar design a few times before, and sometimes that was a problem. I'm sure you already figured that out, but just wanted to say that!!!
Oh, and Good Luck!!!

Must be the most simplest bot yet.
It is sure to win something.

I think it's a beautiful robot. I hope it does well, I haven't seen that many robots who can handle balls *really* well. This one looks like it should be able to pretty well.
