2017 Hopper Division Thread

Thought I’d start this. Use it to say how excited you are, make predictions, etc.

Team 1619 is excited to compete with all of the other outstanding teams on the Hopper Division this year! I’ll see you all in a week!

Team 4635 is really excited to be on this division with teams of China/Israel/Turquia/Australia/USA/Mexico

As a fun fact I think we are the division with most Mexican Teams :smiley:

4513 is Thrilled to go to worlds for the first time and be in hopper with some amazing teams!

We will be without many tools though, as we are bringing basically nothing besides our bot, our drive team, and a couple batteries, so any help with that would be greatly appreciated. This also goes for scouting if anyone is willing to help us there also.

Team 4635 has been working on a comprehensive scouting app, we are currently doing preliminary data for all 67 teams in Hopper Div right now, and would be thrilled to include more teams and help other teams out by using our app during champs

1836 is excited to be joining Hopper!

Be sure to check out our scouting alliance sign up thread, as well!

Excited to be in Hopper with such a nice array of teams!

Upload pictures of your robots to TBA !

Team 4941 is excited to play with everyone and get to know everyone in Hopper. Good luck and see everyone in a week

Here are my “power rankings” for teams using the same metrics I’ve been using for FRCTop25 the past few weeks.

Note: Due to the bracketed scoring of rotors, gear contribution is generally underestimated (especially when gear power exceeds 4). Also, the “Combined Power” is clearly arbitrary and is just a baseline for comparing teams, so I use two metrics.

Combined power = (gearContribution / maxGearContribution) + (fuelContribution / maxFuelContribution)

Team 1778 Chill Out! is ready to have some fun! See you all there!
Say it with me…
CHILL!
OUT!

Team 5663, Ground Control, is excited to compete with all of the amazing teams in the Hopper division. Good luck to everyone!

Team 5431 is traveling with a full pit and is happy to help all Hopper teams!

If you (or anyone else reading this) needs something, feel free to come by our (1868’s) pit and ask. If we have it, we’d be happy to lend it to you!

We’re driving our two pit boxes after a short stay in Las Vegas, and we’ll have half a dozen students and mentors available for any support that’s needed.

Team 6055 is so excited to be in this division! We are just a second year team but are hoping to make a showing on our second trip to Worlds. We got the best hoppers in the Hopper division! :wink:

So excited to be competing (and trading shirts :wink: ) in the Hopper Division for the second year in a row! I wish the best of luck to all teams competing, and am excited to reunite with old friends/make lots of new ones at champs this year!
