Ed Kennell 41,771 #1 Posted November 6, 2016 I spent the day with Grandsons Reed and Jake as they competed in the regional robot competition in Ambler, Pa. Their TECH FIRE 225 robot teamed up with two other machines to win the gold. Could this be my next WH build? 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

r356c 375 #3 Posted November 6, 2016 Congratulations to FIRST Robotics Competition Team 225 TechFire students and mentors! That is an awesome job! Even more impressive is only six weeks were allowed to design and build a finished robot from the competition announcement! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
