4143 and 5442 have a 6 minibot competition March 27th. We built FTC sized bots with spare FRC parts. Primary gamepieces are stress balls shot with Neo 550 motors. The game is inspired by many past FRC games. Watch the stream here https://youtu.be/8zSTqmGiJo8.
Design rules are here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LP6pfDOLPH1XeMiLIOISHgZjW-kNaRv-ZmhISuqq4nI/
Schedule is here (CDT)
This is really unique and looks like it will be a ton of fun for those involved. Way to go 4143!!
I just clicked on the stream link - the semi-finals are in progress. Looks so fun! Nice work all!
UPDATE: I see one of the teams is named “Banana Bread”… Does this name, by chance, have anything to do with the smell a Neo550 makes when it burns up :)? We had the… opportunity to learn about this smell several times last build season.
