This is our robot last saturday. We have since drilled a lot of “speed holes”.

Nice Claws! what else can you do beside grab the 2x?

It looks like it can hang with the huge cyclinder and herd ball will the free spinning pvc. I like it a lot and I looks like it will compete very well. Very impressive for a first year robot. Good job guys and gals.

That robot’s arm is a beast- something I definitely wouldn’t want to run into… Great job!

Nice job just wondering how much does that baby weigh?

The claws can grab the 2x ball (hopefully, we dont have a test field cause were from Alaska and there are only a few teams and none are well funded so we dont actually know if any of this will work), the rams as ngreen guessed can reach the bar, and the pvc roller in the front at the bottom is supposed to push balls. It also has a hook on the back for grabbing mobile goals. It weighs around 130 pounds (we weighed it on a bathroom scale probably not even acurate to within 10 pounds) and we are drilling holes in every non vital part. We have a sort of working line following program so we will probably use that for autonomous.

That’s quite impressive :slight_smile:
