Over the fall, Celt-X 5406 has embarked on a project to rebuild our practice bot ahead of the Ra Cha Cha Ruckus off-season event. The goal was to get some practice with new mechanisms and techniques, while training rookie team members on the basics of robot construction. The project has also provided an opportunity for our marketing team to practice video editing.
It’s been a bit of a panic (we only got the go-ahead to enter a second robot in Ruckus in September), but also super fun to relive build season. The robot is now smaller, lighter, faster and laser-focused on gear running. Catch it (if you can) with a brand new drive team this weekend in Rochester.
For a moment as I was watching the video, I saw this and thought you guys had opened up a CIM on the side and were pumping in air directly. Gave me a bit of a heart attack.
