Totally ingenious; stationary structure while the actual claw moves. Pretty incredible and daring if you ask me.

Very nice rebuild. The lift will be noticeably faster now.

I look forward to playing with you this weekend.

Very impressive, I wonder how many other teams rebuilt a significant portion of their robot (anyone else wanna share?). 548 just tweeked and made a few improvements. Should be a fun weekend, see you there!

Nice try, Katie. I'm not so easily fooled.

Those are the same rc car tires, but different rims than we used... Which I know 1323 happened to sell to a certain team that isn't 1675... Claw looks pretty familiar as well....

1625 looking for another win?

This past Saturday 1732 had a practice day with 1675 and I gotta say its a pretty cool robot. While the elevator isn't quite as fast as 469's, its close and still plenty fast and has a very effective (and unique) roller gripper. While it is very risky rebuilding a new robot, I think there is a good chance they pull it off.

Eh, Whatever. Certainly Prepared for IRI either way.

I guess you can count on me as one that was easily fooled. Nice robot though. Some of the robots this year have reminded me of my glory days back in '07.

let's just say we officially gave our robot the v2 and did someone say ball screw?

Very curious if you used a ball screw, I'll have to come check that out!

Can this reach the top peg? It seems the elevator can only reach the maximum height of the starting configuration. I assume I'm missing something?

The elevator as shown is not in starting configuration.

alternatively of could have been redesigned with IRI in mind, where most alliances will have a team which can pretty much fill the high row and where the bottom row is also worth 2

we tweaked our lift to take a second or so off the time to go bottom to top and we made a new deployment system.

Looking really nice UPS! Is it still the same drivebase?

It is refreshing, though.

EDIT: Aren does this mean Kevin fulfilled the terms of last year's bet?

By being approximately 8ish ft tall in the picture?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that mean it exceeds the starting configuration dimensions?

Maybe they have a way for it to unfold or something at the start of the match!

this reminds me of 469's robot this year. how does it extend, telescoping or folding?

Just what I was thinking too. A good upper assembly needs a proper drive base to equally demolish on the field!

We had some changes in mind but we lost our build space and classroom when the school year ended. All of our stuff is in storage except what is needed for IRI, that is in our new trailer. We are hoping to come and have fun, then after IRI find a new home.

Guess the cat's probably out of the bag now - this is actually 1625's robot. It was a pretty effective scorer, think 469 with a roller claw and you're about there. It didn't make elims, but teams like 51, 234, and 330 managed to miss elims despite great performances so that doesn't mean much.

I don't blame any of the alliance captains for not gambling on us, losing communications in 4 matches is just a smidge frustrating for how much work we've put in this summer.
A great time was still had by all and I would like to thank Jacob Komar for being a very helpful FTA and giving us his time in our hunt to find why we kept losing communications.
