Awesome bot! A subtle thing I've noticed (that maybe not many others have) about your reveal videos is you guys always include your previous year's bot to symbolically hand the game piece to the new bot. Well done!
+Newomaster Almost everyone's realised that :D, but hey when i first realised it too like 4 years ago, i was like woah that's their last years bot :D ;D :D
graduating member of frc324 here. this robot has become kind of a meme among our team and even some of my friends in 118 ever since one of our mentors (former 118 mentor) found a box filled to the brim with trading cards for this robot with a photo and stat block for scouters. we each took home a small stack of like 50 cards and have been putting them everywhere. Below is the full stat block: 118: Arsenal 2016 World Championship: Texas Series Weight: 116lbs Height: 14” - Offset 8” 8wd - Chain-in-tube drive - Pneumatic catapult - 3D printed ball cradle - Fully adjustable shot - Grappling hook hanger
Unbelievable guys. Yet another impressive robot and video, on behalf of Phoenix 1797 (from London). Hope to see you guys in person at St. Louis once again!
How did the Yellow LED's work for your team. The only other team I can think of that used them was 33 and they switched to green during the Michigan State Championships. Also, anyone else with different color LED's for Vision tracking? How did it work for you?
My team works in a shitty classroom with no funding, even though we live in an extremely rich town. It's just no one gives a shit about us. Great robot guys wish you the best!
@@EAGLINWRX shhhh, don't go giving away my intentions 😂😂😂. Honestly if you wanted to build a bot that could fit under the trench this would be an excellent idea for the bars.
@@anthonyrandall4511 we thought of this aswell although the accuracy required would rule it out, in previous years there was a wall to ram against for precision, and since the bar is free-floating this year it's much much harder.
@@EAGLINWRX true, but you can increase the size of the claw system and/or increase the strength of the magnet. It is feasible, I will tell you how it goes if we do it
I know you guys are a great team and all and as always, nice robot, but that's pretty ballsy to say you're competing at the FIRST Championships when the competitions haven't even started yet >.> I guess vanity comes with winning
+ThunderBow Or you know, since they are last year's world champions, they automatically get to go to championships this year, along with original sustaining teams and hall of fame teams.
+Fullap Leesong Have you ever met the Robonauts? Because I have. And while they have some very talented mentor support, the students take easily 80% or higher of the responsibility for every step of the way-from conceptuilization through CAD through build. Don't make assumptions that just because a robot looks spectacular, it's "mentor-built."
+David Bluhm Using your reasoning, have you ever been in their lab or area where they fabricate/brainstorm their ideas, create their bot or anything of that nature?
+David Bluhm Since I'm replying via mobile I can't edit that comment. Here is an example of your reasoning; For example, you go to a cardboard box dealer and they tell you that their cardboard is made from the finest of wood, hand crafted for superior durability, soaked in feces for days to give it their signature brown look. That's what they tell you. But what is really happening is it's just normal cardboard that Amazon uses.
+Fullap Leesong I think you should go talk to 118 in person some time if you're attending the Greater Toronto East Regional, Rocket City Regional, Lone Star Regional, or the World Championship. I'm sure their team members would be glad to explain how their robot is built. In the meantime, why not enjoy this robot for its quality? It's a wonderful machine, and I'm certain a lot of students learned along the way.
+John Taylor Novak I totally agree with you. Team 118 students know a great deal about building great robots. It really upsets me when people automatically think that any robot that looks good and performs well is a mentor built robot. I believe many teams use it as an excuse to explain why their robot can't compete with the good robots.
+Luis Trueba technically you didn't specify what materials they could use they would have to build the robot out of a drill press it'd still probably be better than ours
uno que no tiene nada y que presume que lo tiene todo. mi equipo es mejor porque no necesitamos ni dinero, ni un super taller grande que patrocine a la nasa para ser las pollas. se presumirá, pero no el mejor, o será que su robot subió la cuerda muy rápido y , ups.... lo siento......
Holy hell that grappling hook. That thing is beyond beautiful
+Ruaridh McNair except it didnt work
Ankush Girotra if you watch their matches, most of the time the grappling hook missed the bar lol
Ankush Girotra www.thebluealliance.com/team/118
:)
Ankush Girotra haha np
Congratulations on pulling off what I thought would be impossible in FRC: grappling hooks.
+Anthony Galea Nah it didnt work bruh
+Ninjabrickmaster234 they re did it tho right
+Ninjabrickmaster234 it did at the rocket city finals.
Robonauts always kill it with their song choice
Impressive as always, guys. I had to rewatch the grappling hook over and over... I couldn't believe what I saw xD

Grappling hook???
Ok you have fun with that I'll just go cry in the corner or something
+JuliusK they did cuz it didnt work lel
Unfortunately it wasn’t super reliable...which is a shame, because they made a really awesome robot

Not only a really cool robot, but excellent video production and music that has me up and Bustin'Moves.
I am in love with your robots and your team ily thank you for being the light in my life
Wow! Great job! Ditto to everything already posted. I hope to see you at competition.
Great looking robot. Amazed as always.
Love the climbing mechanism, beyond impressive as always, how does it release for reset though?
Do you know what is white besides your robot? my pc screen after I watched this reveal.
+Omer Kariv Omg, lol. XD
Comeback Comments? XD
That sharpie drill though
Another great video from a fantastic team. GG
Anyone notice how they threw a cow instead of a ball at 1:17
+sukhman bhatti Yup!
Assume a perfectly spherical cow with no air resistance
i had to stop, drop, and roll because this was straight fire...
It's that time of the year again, isn't it..?
Incredible climbing mechanism.
DAT GRAPPLING HOOK THOUGH! DAMN!
You have done a good job with making the robot that you have built to play the game you are going to play with the robot.
Unbelievable guys. Yet another impressive robot and video, on behalf of Phoenix 1797 (from London). Hope to see you guys in person at St. Louis once again!
The most SWAG robot ever
so how do you guise do hot goal
haaavvee you seeeennnnn...
That grappling hook! Btw, what's the music?
+Team 323Z The Wild Life by Outasight
+Team 323Z Grappling hook is good in theory but not in practice :p
+Ninjabrickmaster234 it's still good in practice lol
+Ninjabrickmaster234 they re did it tho right??
can you guys get more videos on the chanel, I love the videos and I don't want to wait a year for the next one.
How is the grappling hook propelled?
How did the Yellow LED's work for your team. The only other team I can think of that used them was 33 and they switched to green during the Michigan State Championships.
Also, anyone else with different color LED's for Vision tracking? How did it work for you?
Annnnnnd, we’re back
the song is perfectt>
from 4364
awesome job guys we look forward to competing with you, great job with scaling, I haven't seen many other teams go for that
How does the grappling hook work?
Great editing!
But have you seen them?
Its going down tomorrow.
LUV YOUR VIDEO!
And their robotots are kinda cool too
Great Song for this vid
118th comment. Great robot who else is here during quarantine lol
HAVE YOU SEEN?
this video is basically a meme now
song suggestion for 2017: unstoppable by the score.
lol thats what 148 used for theirs
Amazing
LOVE IT!
Luv your video
Is that a facility for you guys?!
My team works in a shitty classroom with no funding, even though we live in an extremely rich town. It's just no one gives a shit about us. Great robot guys wish you the best!
They are part of NASA, that facility is the training facility and production facility of the Johnson Space Center.
wow, blown away
I’m praying that you guys don’t show up for The rapid react competition because you guys terrify me with what you guys can accomplish for these robots
wtf, what did you guys use for your grappling hook springs or pnuematics?
+Ankush Girotra what would make a spring less consistent than an air filled cylinder :D lol teams are using big springs to launch there ball
impressive as always. love the climber.
nice i see somebody using the outer works technique untouchable by the defence.
o. m. g.
this. thing is a monster
NICE!!
Kobeee!!
Is there a way I could get a cad for that grapple hook?
It's online
I know you are looking to use it for the 2020 game😉

well designed lego car
?
It's so beautiful *tear*.
BTW should have named it Barcelona. :p

Well I'm early...
This is the 118th comment.
How in the...
oof its 120 comments now
if only this team built their own robots
If 118 doesn't build their own robots, then why do their students keep on winning the Deans list award?
