Day 1

Well, the 2013 FRC season is now underway! The new game, Ultimate Ascent, involves both Frisbee Throwing and Pyramid Climbing, and we should once again see some pretty interesting ideas on how teams accomplish one, or both, of these tasks. The video describing this year's game can be found here: Kickoff Video. This video is a quick 2 minute walkthrough of what the game is, and some basic rules for this year. Share with your friends so that everyone knows about the coolest game in town!

Following the kickoff video, the team started our first planning session of many throughout the season. After some basic ideas were tossed out and a team picture was taken, the team disbanded for the day. Several members of the team made it up to the shop, where the Kit of Parts was checked to make sure that everything was correct and in place.

The team will meet again tomorrow, Monday the 7th, to further discuss what the strategy will be for playing this year's game, and how our robot will accomplish this strategy.

Stay Tuned,

Daniel Mitchell - Head Programmer
