Built and driven by a Georgia Tech alumnus, it was honor to just share the arena with such a legend of the game. After a few solid hits, Hibachi's weapon was bent, preventing it from spinning. In order to preserve it for our one remaining match, the Hibachi team collectively decided to tap out.

Problems

  • The 8 hours before leaving for Motorama, we discovered that the robot was heinously obese (whopping 2 ounces overweight), causing us to put it on a diet via dremmel. However, dieting process, while successful, left the weapon scarred and deformed, barely recognizable from its original CAD design.
  • In our attempt to diet Hibachi, we also replaced our back plate with a plastic plate that was the dictionary definition of "janky". Our screw holes were however, pardon the pun, screwed, as the screws were unable to screw in full way and left half hanging out of the chasis.

Good aspects

  • It made the weight requirement.
  • It worked.
  • It won matches.
  • The weapon design, even after the dieting process, was, for lack of other words, thicc.
