The 2010 Curve Ball

curveball???

How about wiffleballs in a longrange shooting contest :yikes:

While our drivetrain in 2003 was pretty good, teams had to deal with a little more than a box on wheels. The ramps were what made that robot great, not the wheels. Exhibits 1, 2, 3 are best viewed flip book style. Oh yea, the autonomous wasn’t too shabby either :smiley:

This may be due to FLL rules that prevent this. Apparently, teams once did stuff like sticks that could reach halfway across the table. Therefore, robots now have to move out of their starting area before using said big sticks.

At the FRC scale, now that would be interesting.
