 The closest and strongest friendships that I have formed, however, have come from the FIRST robotics program. Friends that I can call “brother,” that I can call “sister,” that I can just call “family.” - DanDon [more] |

The Wizard 399 - Post ship
Rene said that there would be changes, well here they are.
The top is made of bungee cord, and it articulates.
Up (like in the picture) for deflecting balls back into the near zone. (And for kicking)
Down for going through the tunnel.
The straps are to ensure that a ball can't go more then 3 inches into the frame, and they fold in when lowered.
The hammer is also lowered upon lowering of the top screen. (Yay software! 
)

The only thing that changed post-ship was at Arizona, we reduced the gear ratio for more torque. Everything else was pre-ship (12 hours before, but still).
(And the fact that the kicker can't operate with the top down is a reason for the articulation)

We have a few improvements to make (mostly in software) for Atlanta, so we plan to perform better.
