Team 19: Blue Storm

Our robot is quite a simple design. The back part is mildly capable of pushing small balls in general directions, and the arm/claw thing that rotates is able to get under big balls and lift them partially up. At this point the robot backs into the goal area and slam dunks the big ball in. This happens on a good day, such as the mock competition, and totally fails on the bad day, such as the real competition.

The name BLUE STORM comes from a Starcraft map that we barely ever play, and the fact that our kit came with only blue beams and no red ones, though all of our extra 2x4 plates were yellow. Hence the stormy nature. I guess the storm is also pelting lava in some places because of some 2x3 blocks turned out to be red.

Finally, a shout out to my main man
