FIRST Robotics Competition

Game

In 2007, the game was Rack 'n' Roll.

Robots

This year's robot was Thunderhorse. It was one of the two robots built in the beginning of the season, but by the early weeks Thunderhorse was the that was chosen to be continued to work on. Patrick Harrington and Michael Strain put their two ideas together to form one great robot after beating out Randy's idea. As Valerie Strain states, "it was a fun year to watch so many different designs come together". The highly effective manipulator and the team's secret, unobtainium, seem to make this robot very effective overall.

The team also attempted to build another robot, named the Nimble Gimbal, but due to the complexity of its design, the robot was not able to be built in time for it to be finalized before competition.
