Since I just posted someplace else that Hexcalibur was my favorite robot of all time (from pictures anyway), I got around to thinking. What happened to team 146? What happened to Hexcalibur? Could somebody who knows technical information about the legend tell me why it was such a great robot? Could somebody guide me to some video?
Team 146 was a partnership between Manchester West HS and Public Service Co of NH. The partnership was dissolved a few years ago and West now has another sponsor.
Hexcaliper is proudly sitting in the FIRST Hall Of Fame which is inside of FIRST Place on the second floor. (the same floor that science camps are on) It has some pretty good company there. Like a certain robot with tubes and another with some Maize…
Anyone wish to name the teams associated with these robots?

Well, I would have to guess that the bot with Maize is from the original national champion from 1992, 126.

The tube bot is Wildstang.
Helluva bot. I can’t wait to see it again (next time I’m in Manchester).

**well, the tube bot was correct, but when it comes to Maize, think of the team with a team that we all try to COPY. Sorry about that. **
Ohh… riiiiight.
It’s the X-Cat 1992 robot, there is a little display with a cool video too.
