pic: 1889 coming togeather



picture taken tonight displaying the elite sexiness of the violet and zinc yellow chromate transmitions

It’s a beauty. Can we expect to see that in action at Swamp Scrimmage?

do pigs explode?

When is the Swamp scrimmage anyways?

February 17th at 10 a.m. at Inlet Grove HS.

It looks like the compressor head has been rotated 90 degrees…

I have no idea what that would fall under…but the compressor is thought of as a motor.
Just wondering if that would be modifying a motor…if not than man thats a great idea.

Seeing all of these robots makes me a little jealous, compared to our plain-o robot with nothing special. I am always impressed by teams that spend time and effort to make their robot really stand out on the field.

And I do like the violet. :wink:

Wow… Verrrry Shmexy. What’s the weight as pictured?

Hey Tytus and 1889, Nice frame thus far. I like the fact that its painted, what already puts it visually above so many robots.

Is it an accident that it says Haze, is that the name of this Beast?

The team name is H.A.Z.E, and in a reference to the song “Purple Haze” by Jimmi Hendrix, we chose a purple color scheme. :slight_smile:

As far as I know, the robot doesn’t actually have a name yet. Any ideas](http://chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?p=567417#post567417)? :stuck_out_tongue:

Ugly…

Just kidding Jaine. I think that ‘Smog’ is a good place to start. SOme things that i think of with the whole purple yellow thing, though are 1) Kobe and the Lakers and 2) Purple Orchids.

But, as far as Haze is concerned, you could either name it Band Camp (hazing), or on a more Hazy note, name it Smoky (only YOU can prevent Magic smoke!!!)

Play with that if you want. Seems like a fun idea to me.

Btw, sorry tytus is you don’t like the picture.

Where there’s Smoke There’s Fire:cool:

it means Hot And Zesty Engineers.

Looks great guys, another strong competitor reppin FL.

When looking for a name a good place to start is dictionary.com. I often use the thesaurus to at least get my ideas flowing. Just type in words that relate to the robot. I tried ‘haze’ and ‘purple’. Both came up with several notable names.

you know i forgot to weigh it. but it’s still light enough for me to pick it up by myself

Actually it does - MoJo

He can pick ME up all by himself. That means it’s anywheres between 0 and 105 pounds. :stuck_out_tongue:

But in all seriousness, my guess is that its somewhere between 45 and 55 pounds with all of the components added to it. Possibly more.

Cool. Where did the inspiration for that name come from? :slight_smile:

I love the robot, very Smexy. :smiley:
