Still the best robot I've ever run, as well as the first. (well to be fair this was back when my dad made 99% of the robot so i can't really say I "built" this) but damn was it solid, and a tough bot to beat. I've been toying with reviving it at some point because it was just so good, and the frame is in remarkably good condition. hell i could run it as soon as i get another set of tinyescs.

This thing is cursed. It really is. It started life as a shell I bought off ebay for about 3x the amount it was worth, then got bodged together in the pits at its first event before a motor jammed and I ended up losing. Second battle it bounced into the pit after the only good hit it ever got. Then sold to Tweedy (it currently exists under the name Tactical Nuclear Penguin). Plans were to rebuild it in time for Bot Blast but due to time constraints it didn't happen and it instead made it to the Mini Maker Faire where the weapon wouldn't spin up for crap. It demolished a duct tape robot before losing to Robo Rooter and forfeiting to Spongebot. It remained in existence for another year and a half or so before I gutted it for parts. probably won't be coming back any time soon.

Milled from a big block of UHMW, FireArrow was me trying to "improve" FireArrow - with mediocre results. My choice of drive (11.1:1 Sparks with the sumo motors) were not only too fast to drive, but also made it difficult to drive while inverted, where it ended up often. I downgraded to 22.2:1 sparks for the following event, where it was too slow with the sumo wheels. It also suffered some super bizarre issue with one of the bearing blocks not retaining motor screws, which cost it at least one match. After running out of time to finish a scrapped FireArrow 3 concept, I threw bigger tires on it and brought it to its third event, Franklin 2016, where it did decently for being a flawed design. I can't be upset with losing to the top two bots at an event. It's retired now for the new 4wd FireArrow.

Landshark was me going "hey the mantis class is pretty small let's make a wedge for it" and then doing so. about 75% of the weight of this robot is in the thick steel wedge, which ended up putting the robot overweight by a bit. fortunately we were able to pocket out the wedge and get it within weight, and then win its first match against Brandon's CATAPULT. Unfortunately the relatively obscure drivetrain we were using (ebay gearboxes mated to larger generic motors) ended up breaking, and there weren't enough parts to scrounge together a spare, so i had to forfeit. if i can find more gearboxes and/or another drive solution i'll bring it back for this year.

An FBS that has gone through more name changes than something with a lot of different names. I wanted to finish it for Franklin 16 but started too late, it should be at Moto.

3-hour fairyweight which was spurred by "demise has won too many times, let's change that". its wheels are probably way too big for a fairy. it probably won't last more than two fights. but who cares it's a fairy lol

Newest build, a super-wide drum spinner. I've been very happy with it so far.
