Students or mentors Who has nominated a student/Won for dean list what are qualities of one???

Alliance selection is just Home Depot music

This may sound stupid to those with more experience, but this is my rookie year in FRC and my first event will be an off-season, my question is, are blue banners awarded at these types of events?

I wish upon you much candy and fruit snacks.

This hammer is perfect for hard-to-reach areas of your bumpers, allowing for the installation of curved nails into your bumpers for securement of both fabric and pool noodles! You will certainly not regret using curved nails. (yes this is a joke, this hammer was bent during a meeting today)

This is what I get for trying to remove a wood screw with a claw hammer. Let me know if anyone has recommendations for hammers that don't do this under extreme torque, or screw extractors I should invest in lol

Okay, so basically this is my first year in FRC and I had an idea to do dual arms or just have some wag to have one arm and off a block to the arm behind but no team in my entire state has ever tried to use two arms and so there’s no one I know to ask. If there’s any suggestions on servos, parts, designs anything would be appreciated.

Hi all! I am a mentor on team 1511 Rolling Thunder and we are fairly well known (at least in our region) for our bright red camo pants that are a part of our uniform. I was talking with some other team members and we are trying to figure out how many colors of the camo rainbow are represented by different teams. I know that there are 1296 Full metal jackets with orange camo and 1806 S.W.A.T. with gray camo. I also remember seeing purple at some point, but I don't recall what team that was.

For full transparency, we were discussing reaching out to the manufacturer to see if we could get a sponsorship from them, so we may use this info in our pitch if we can find a place to fit it in.

This morning, I received an email from FIRST saying that our team was dropped. I was very confused by this sudden action from First without any prior notice. So I called First today and they said that the person who dropped our team was the regional director in our area. I sent an email to that director and am waiting for a reply. Has anyone had a similar experience and how did your team respond?

Every team I know has their own uniqe and maybe stupid tradition or game, I would like to hear some from the community

We recently installed an Orange Pi into our photon vision pipeline. We can use it to do various vision tasks like homing onto an object. However, ONLY when plugged in, our robot will randomly have VERY large brownouts where it doesn't get communications from the remote; this leads our robot to not respond to controls and keep going. It does respond to e-stop, though. When we disconnect our orange pi the robot continues the normal desired behaviour. We often get warning/error messages saying that the periodic of a bunch of things are taking too long or that the watchdog isn't being fed in x seconds.

Those who has come close or has one the spirt award/ think why other maybe have won the award

how do you win the Team spirt award??

Hayo I’m a first robotics student who’s a pit director of my team. How can I make my pit look cool/ what ideas,things I can add to it an issue there is is that our vans don’t have enough space for us to have anything extravagant but I still I want it to look nice

I know it's pretty much impossible, but I saw some robots that hung using 1 claw or climber and just laid against the side of the stage to stay upright. Maybe it could be possible if there were at least 2 robots that used that climbing scheme?
