Here it is our final robot the only problem is it doesn't work. Our arm has sheared 3 worm gears over the course of 2 days we are currently redesigning the gearbox on the arm so that it does not happen anymore. We get up to approximately. 12 feet when the arm is up full length (its not in this picture due to the ceiling) and when we get this gearbox all fixed up we will be good to go. I may upload a new pic of the robot all finished if we get it finished today the only problem is we cant work much longer today due to the snow.

This is a really awesome looking robot. I think it looks really stable.
I'll be returning to 521's pit for my Robot Hugs of course.

It really is stable it takes 2 people to tip it over we finally built a robot with the weight distrabuted correctly it really helps, and it pushes our last years robot arround really well. But it doesnt really matter unless we get that arm fixed up... Argh its rather depressing my baby is broken... Oh well heres to hoping we fix it tomarow !!
See you at UTC and Nat's

It just fits so perfect... Ours is kinda like that but it slots down into the chassis and its a lot harder to get out...

(NOTE: It's a joke, OK? No need for the safety lecture. Our battery sits in a well. We just put two mini-bungees over it to make sure it doesn't fall out if the 'bot flips.)

and yeah me and Xufer had several "discussions" over the design and placment of that battery box. We ended up compromising
