or 3 3 would have bean nice
Nice! Itās nice too see the tradition of teams doing RI3Dās isnāt being broken by quarantine!
this is our first thoā¦
I just mean tradition for vex teams in general, not u lul
Limited recources. Imagine having recources
Nice robot for 3 days. You guys are getting an early start for sure. My cadding is going pretty slow because my computer really struggles with inventor. Itās only got 4gb ram so I ordered more. Iām holding out on cad until then. Good luck this season!
Itās fine to give your opinion, but as respect is a rule on this forum itās generally good manners to provide an explanation and/or criticism to complaints rather than saying āThis robot isnāt unique.ā I also want to be truthful as well⦠Those who generally use the vexforum/vex discord and participate in social media is much more competitive than those who donāt. And those who donāt are the majority of those who compete in VEX. That being said, by telling a member of the vexforum that their robot āMeets expectationsā can also imply that their robot is extremely average. But is it?
As much as I hate to say it, yes. It is the average VEX Robot. But the first thing to getting better is by admitting your weaknesses/shortcomings and improve upon them. Take the criticism I am about to say @Avonderweidt , donāt take it personally, and use it to get better.

Speaking in defense of @Avonderweidt, heās quite a knowledgeable roboteer, and he is not at all an amateur. From what he has told me, he had much success in vex iq, and qualified for worlds multiple times. He has won many trophies, and had a very competitive robot in his first year of VRC, nearly qualifying for worlds again this year. Having seen his robot, it was built very well and was one of the most reliable in our region. I imagine the āexpectationsā that are being talked about are comparing his RI3D to something like a vexu team or 210y, a top tier team. Keep in mind that this was his first RI3D, and he only had 3 people to do everything. Maybe itās not perfect, but that isnāt a representation of his knowledge/skills, just a lack of time and resources. I know that my boy knows how to use bearing flats
. And @Sylvie did clarify what he meant, that he meant no disrespect or āshadeā, as quoted. I think by clearing that up there is no need to call him out again for lack of respect.
