Title: IN CASE ANYONE HAS IDLE MOMENTS...
Post by: stetto on April 07, 2016, 03:07:46 PM
Our boy Elroy--er, Dylan is in a robotics program. His team is competing in Minneapolis this week. You can watch the excitement via this feed;

His team is #3278, aka QWERTY.

Just sharing. Kinda fun to watch the kids play with r/c... :disturbed: :eusa_doh:

Yes, but can he fly?   :icon_mrgreen:

My 17 year old nephew on the left coast is into that robotics stuff, but watching him try to assemble mechanical parts will make you cry.  He can design those things all day long, but someone else has to build them.

They got dealt a dirty team their first match, bad guys went out of their way to ram my guy's bots into the prone position. That's illegal, and nothing was said or done. It'll be nice to know who's rewriting the rules as they go.

No Jaime, Dylan wasn't in the physical build phase, just design and operation.

...no, I wouldn't trust him with your aircraft... :disturbed:
