im part of our high school robotics team, and this is what weve been building for the last 6 weeks

we compete on march 17-19, at purdue university
 
yeah.......our team is part of a very large robotics league, called FIRST, that has about 1500 different teams across the US (about 1000 active).......we have about 15 people on our team, 7 students or so and the rest mentors/engineers, and we have been working 4 hours a day for the last 6 weeks, except 8 hours on saturdays

every year they have a new challenge, so it usually not common to keep the same robot for 2 years......this year, the basic idea is to put a "tetra" on top of a goal to score points

this isnt our robot, but the same idea

Yes, here at Game Addicts Video Game Forums, we accept nothing but a win. We believe in fair play but losing is unacceptable!

Good Luck!

Remember MM, you're "listening to your CD player" while your friends are "listening to the radio" while others are "driving a remote-controlled car" outside in the parking lot with a supercharged controller.

i think we have the sexiest looking robot ever

basically, we used the same design that airplanes use, and i dont think that that has ever been done before
 
I wonder if I can auction his robot that he worked on for 6 weeks on eBay?

Naw Im just kidding, looks really good and I hope you win as well. :D
