    Robot season is almost over...

    Been working on this robot since the first week in January. In this competition they present the game & rules and you have 6 weeks to design/build/test before having to ship it. It's quite a feat for a high-school based event! For those unfamiliar the the FIRST organization, here's a link to the competition page: http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc

    Some testing we did earlier this week:

    And figured you guys would get a kick out of this... we needed to incorporate a brake to help us balance on a bridge (you'll see in the video what im talking about). Since I have a few "bike build" threads here, im sure you guys will see where our robot brake influence came from





    And here's a few random build shots:

    What's the name of that school? Steinert? Get rid of a "t" and you have a finely named school!
