 "Individual": I am the FMS. I don't want to talk to you.
Robot: FMS, is this true? I still have stuff for you.
Actual FMS: No, what gave you that idea? Are you feeling ok?

Great looking bot.......
That looks to be only human-player loadable, is this true?

Re: pic: Evil's twin - The Enforcer aka BINGO!
Some time tonight we will post some videos of the bot shooting in the middle goal.
The best part about this shooter is the ball loader, wheel and tilt are all on the same axis. We did a stress test on it last night and realized our weak spots so we are adding struts to strengthen the structure right now. (Thanks Mike and Tony).
We have been having major control system issues but hopefully it will work today. Autonomous is pending but that is nothing we cannot fix.
Thoughts?

We just made a couple of autonomous runs with the camera....10 balls in 9.8 seconds, from the 2nd spot. Video shall come after we breakdown the field later tonite.

Good robot!
I like the shooter on the turret*(sp maybe)
The only bad thing i see is it only being human player loaded...
Are you loading right next to the human players, or shooting with good wishes?

One word: WOW! That is one great looking robot.
I hope Car Nack sees your autonomous demo before he makes any more predictions - that looked like an "easy" 40 pts if you can do it in competition.
So, where do you attach the precision re-alignment device for after your patented "push the opponent into the next time zone" moves? (sometimes called a slide-hammer).
Now I really can't wait for NJ.

Nice Robot! it reminds me of a paintbgall hopper. I hope your human players are good. it looks to me like you can rotate your entire gun and hopper. How far around can it rotate?

Re: pic: Evil's twin - The Enforcer aka BINGO!
And if you are wondering about the drivetrain design, its nearly the same as last year, with a few minor adjustments.
And here was the penalty for doubting the camera would work...
ehh give me a bit...gotta upload it somewhere first

Re: pic: Evil's twin - The Enforcer aka BINGO!
Agreed.
Very well done. I wish you all luck at New Jersey, because I don't think we'll be able to talk to each other and exchange notes.
TEN AUTO MODES? Am I hearing this correctly? Wow! How did you do that?
We plan on eight, but we've only gotten 2 done. I give props to your programmers and programming mentors.
The only suggestion I have is: be prepared to defend and get passed defenders. If that's the only way you can score, you may get 30 points and we all may love it, but you can't get any more because there may be so-many defensive-minded bots that harass you that you miss wide. (That's the problem with rapid-fire that we were trying to deal with ourselves.) That's not enough to leave you in the positive if someone on your alliance receives a major penalty. But I applaud what you've done so far.
By the way, I have two questions.
(1) Have you guys been able to make it up the ramp?
(2) What was your shipping weight of the robot (minus battery and bumpers), just out of curiosity?

Shipping weight was 120.2...heh. But we have 14 different ways that we are gonna trim some fat.
And we have plans for those defensive bots, don't you worry about that.

Slick bot. Don't get too cocky though. You may have plans for those defensive bots... Your brakes and turret I imagine. Even if a powerful defensive robot is able to move you, your turret will be able to compensate.... but what happens when they just park in front of you without even trying to move you? With your shooter positioned so low, you won't be able to shoot over a robot taller than 3 or 4(?) feet. For your bot, the ability to shoot on the move will be a must.
Good luck in the coming season from your friends at 1114
See you at Champs and IRI

But what plans (strategies) do you have for defensive bots? If there are any that are successful (against robots at NJ that are going to the Chesapeake Regional), do you mind explaining in a PM so that we can get a head start on scouting? (I know 203, 303, 103, 56, and others are all up to something pretty good, but how it'll work at Chesapeake, I'm not sure.)

And to Sgraff, I'll let you know after NJ.
