Recent inactivity (FRC)

Post by nickmcski » Tue Jan 06, 2015 4:38 pm

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been online recently. On Saturday January the 3rd FIRST robotics FRC competition started and I am one of thousands of teams trying to build a robot to accomplish this task. (for anyone interested here is the game reveal video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTyCIYZQ_1s" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). I'm one of the team leaders and one of the programmers so spending 4-6 hours everyday after school working on this robot is really stretching me this this year. Since my exam break is coming up soon I will try to get on craftland a lot more then, but currently I wont be able to get very active.

I just wanted you guys to know why i'm not online and find out if anyone else is on an FRC team? (Or Jr. FLL, FLL, FTC)

I remember you doing something like this last year

Good luck, as long as your robots do not turn into the robots from IRobot

Well the way I programmed the robot it did attack me when no one was arround to hit the stop or e-stop button. (Don't worry I got out of the way, it saw the target again and backed up to where it should be)

To everybody in the FRC: It finally started! This game is much more different than the other ones. I will also be slightly less active because I will be in this competition too.
