I went to the COACH'S FORUMS tonight and got some examples of places to look at simple robot chassis designs.
 If you guys have time... go take a look at these and let me know if any of them look good.

News from our Team

So the boys have chosen a name we are officially RoboCreeps, Team #1903! They are working on logos and seem to be getting excited about things.
The designer of this years' Robot Game has made a video, explaining the game that the Team may want to watch a few times. CLICK HERE to view it.
The PDF file of the Robot Game and the Updates are at THIS SITE.

I told the kids today that they should probably be watching as many of the video as they can to get ideas - some of the videos can be found on the same page as the Designer's video... just click on PLAYLIST and they will appear on the right, and below the video.
THIS is the site we used to set up the mat the first time.


You can also Google FLL - Food Factor-  or other related topics.
If you find something good, let me know and I will share it.


Til next week......
