Dose anyone have a bot they built that is actullay worth the look at. Not just somthing that rolls around.
If so Prove it.

Why would you even ask this question? In the gallery there are plenty of robots to look at, sure some the pictures aren’t high quality but they’re still there, and heres a site with photos from a competition I was recently at http://connvex.org/?page=gallery they’re plenty of pictures there. Google is also your friend.
dread, thats kinda mean. all of the robot on this site are cool, it doesnt matter if they are simple.
Hey Dread,
I’m kinda wondering what your expectations are for the robots. The value of Vex is not in creating a piece of machinery that is useful in the sense that it will wash your dishes, or pick up your laundry, or mow your lawn. Rather it is most useful as a platform for exploring principles of mechanics, strengths of materials, electronics, programming, etc. in an entertaining way. A robot that just ‘rolls around’ is worth the look if it can give you new insights into these things, or even if it is only just entertaining.
Well put. I’d give you reputation if I could.
So my reputation is not great. I dont care.
Ok let say i put my bot up next to urs and ur is a rolling box.
Then ur bot is way lower in my mind then to compared to my bot.
To me there are levels of how good u r to build robots and other stuff and the box on wheels is not on the scale of goodness… mmmhhhmmm
Its like chocolate Discusting coco or white coco.
To me bots have to have a purpose and rolling around is not one of them.
A bot with a extendable arm or weapons has a purpose.

Eat Coco
It’s the ultimate Erector set for big boys!
not all robots need weapons or robotical arms. Heck sometimes those are the easiest things. In my mind a cool bot is one that opens up new grounds in technology for vex like walking bots, two wheel balancing bots, or a stair climber. Vex isn’t about making a bot that blows stuff up, it is about useing your brain to make a bot that opens up your world to new areas of science. And also, when your trying to make a point, how about you spell words correctly, or at least in a way that we can understand what your talking about. And one lat thing, stop making threads that are completely pointless
i agree , this thread is pointless.
So basicaly DREAD you compare everything else to your stuff so in your opinion the robots here aren’t good. However that doesn’t mean that they are in fact not good. Most people just build them for fun anyways.
Then if u think it is pointless then why are u posting in it.
I can write and insult w/e the hrck i want.
Wut u gonna do, nothin. sooo shut up.
Love DREAD
DUDE…just chill!!!
we dont need to all start arguing over some comment that you thought was stupid.
~ALEX~
In your eye your robot seems the best compared to someone else but sometimes as I discovered at the Farmville competition the simplest robot(ours) a square bot with serious gearing and a huge plow went to the semi-finals with ease. So sometimes the simplest robots can be the most effective it just depends on how much money your willing to spend, how much time your willing to take, and how much thought you put in to what you want to build. If all you have is the starter kit then obviously your not going to get very far right? but if you bought everything then obviously you can expand your ideas.
I posted to tell you to stop posting threads that are pointless and retarded, that ■■■■ people off. So take a chill pill and be more respectful to your peers. And you spelling still sucks.
This is going to go the same way all his other threads have gone. He feels he’s been insulted(when he hasn’t) and will start yelling at us about how we’re so stupid. I’d ignore him at this point.
Wow! what is wrong with him?
Dread…
Nothing will ever replace the greatest articulation known to man… The human hand attached to the human soul.
All we can hope to do in robotics, is to come as close as technology and ethics will allow.
Now… go find you a date for the weekend lad!
(human preferred)
Well ur a retared cause im not so shut ur trap.
LOL…I like ua… wut ur name.
look DREAD if you think your so hot and all, bring it, check out out robot on our website and see if you can beat it. If you want to, bring your robot to a VA scrimmage (we are having one in March and April) in Northern VA and lets see what you’ve got. Stop talkin and lets play. You need to stop being a douche and get some videos of what you’ve got. Your threads make no sense and if you really want to see some robots thast are “up to your expectations” come to a scrimmage.
