 (The wheels) need to be green anodized, and then assembled with yellow anodized spinners. ... and then, on the spinners, you can etch "JVN is a dweeb". That would be cool. - Andy Baker [more] |

I like these twins -- innovative, clean, and clever. My biggest question is how on earth did you get TWO teams to agree on a design? We usually can't get one team to do that...

You dont get two team to decide!!!!! ONE has the mentoring and designing capability and then the other has the machining and resource capability!!!! so your left with two identical ROBOTs that are different colors!!!

980 strikes again. Can't wait to see some footage of it in action - The Thunderbots are always a force to be reckoned with. Good luck guys.

The robots were distinctly unique (whenever there was a divergance of opinion that could not be reconciled, the teams went their own way), yet still very similar.
Collaboration can be a very, VERY good thing when done correctly.

Re: pic: Team 980 ThunderBots AimHigh Entry
yo alan so u know it actually was a positive collaboration where both teams worked as one. Yes team 4 has many more resources then 980 had but the whole bot was designed between the both teams at some very long debate sessions.
we sat for most of the first week figuring out how the most effective way to shoot the ball was and from there we worked out the bot
in terms of their being identical twins that was the point seeing as we decided that together the way the bots worked was the most efficient for this years game

(just my two cents because i actually participated and didnt assume?)
