 Mentors are the guardrails:
Show the students how to do what they need to do, Step back and let the students do what they need to do, Nudge them back on course when they need a nudge, Insist, when necessary, that no one tries to juggle the chainsaws - gblake [more] |

This is Team 293's 11th competition robot, I don't have all the details since I am at college, but here is what I know. Two wheel drive, with one ramp for 15 point scoring, and arm for scoring. Once I get more details I will let you know.

What did you make you're ramps out of?
It looks pretty sweet.

casters? did you struggle with weight? do you find it hard to line up with a tube with the free rotating wheels in the front?

Some quick questions:
Are you going to add bumpers onto the sides?
How does the ramp deploy?
If you tested/practiced, approximately how many ringers can you score in 2 minutes?
Catch you in action at the NJ Regional!

Unfortunately I am at college, so I have not seen the robot in person, and I don't have the info to answer all of your questions.
The ramps are made out of Carbon Fiber Composite, from what I know I think they are spring loaded.
The robot weighed in at 117 pounds.
I am fairly sure there will be bumpers, there are just not any in the photo.
I don't have scoring info, I will try to find out more.
