Did you know that's a very close copy of the Mars helicopter planned for the upcoming NASA mission? Mars' atmosphere is only 1% that of Earth's. But it has only 1/3 of our gravity and the blades spin at a crazy high RPM to fly. Amazing technology! www.nasa.gov/press-release/mars-helicopter-to-fly-on-nasa-s-next-red-planet-rover-mission
We just noticed that the crater on the video is to the right of the drivers, however...... on the online FTC game manual the crater is to the left of the drivers box. We are going along with the online game manual views.
I don't think FTC would put teams in such a sink-or-swim game, a lot of teams would be in over there heads in a water game and would flood First with complaints
It's something visual for the audience. Previously, there was a climbing endgame once every three years in FRC. We've had it every year since 2016 now.
@FIRST Tech Challenge Urgent question, How far above the playing field is the Anchor point for the Lander Support Bracket? I cannot find it on any other website.
Can anyone find out the dimensions for the lander? Andymark has just the box dimensions and the leg dimensions, but the leg isn't vertical in the video. Where's the latch in relation to the sides? FTC needs to add exact dimensions for teams who can't afford to spend $275 for a real one.
FIRST really needs to get some new game designers who are creative. The competitions in recent years have all been relatively the same concepts with only tiny changes. Res-Q was slightly different and the teams complained because then they had to come up with new ideas on how to meet the competition requirements. FTC game design has become extremely stale, and lack of innovation allows veteran teams to easily dominate the competition when they can simply recycle design concepts and don't have to innovate.
ATTENTION EVERYONE!!! The game animation is wrong in respect to the positions of the craters and team depots. If you compare the animation to the game manual, they are different! -4634 FROGbots
I find it sad that whoever made this video spent more time thinking of ways to intentionally make it feminine and girly than they did lining up their collision boxes to avoid models clipping through each other. They've replaced focus on the objective quality of the video with focus on making a political statement about gender.
Boi shut yo sensitive ass up. They had a couple more girls in the intro video and that's legit the only thing related to femininity in this video. And how is that even connected to the animation quality? And it's hard to say this animation is objectively worse, considering last year the people and ground were untextured and the clipping was hardly noticeable. Not everything is connected to partisanship, and anyone who tells you some trivial shit is a political statement is either deliberately trying to delude you or radically extreme in there views.
Okay, for one, there is literally one hashtag in the entire video, shown several times: #LikeAGirl, presumably by an all-female team. Can you even imagine the lawsuits that would come up if someone tried to start a male-only FTC team? That's almost as political as the phrase "Make America Great Again" is. Why not #OMGRobots, or #FRC, or #RoverRuckus or something that actually promotes the theme? Second, that team's mascot is a female gender sign. What kind of person (girl or otherwise) who is legitimately interested in robotics wants to have their team represented by a symbol of their gender instead of what they are interested in doing: building/wiring/programming stuff? If you want to argue about gender, go into politics or social justice, not robotics. Finally, the font at 7:45 is the most cringeworthy thing I've seen all day. Purple on pink in cursive version of comic sans? yuck dude... As far as the quality of the video goes, the objects are clipping through each other like a collisionless 3D video game at 4:55, 5:55, 6:41, 6:45, 6:47, and 6:55. I couldn't care less how many girls there are in the beginning of the video. All I'm saying is that there was someone at the table when this was planned out whose main goal was to make it as girl-friendly as possible, but clearly there wasn't anyone who wanted to make a decent reveal video like this one: ua-cam.com/video/VqOKzoHJDjA/v-deo.html
@@davidharmeyer3093 Perhaps I missed it, but in the video I did not see any hashtags, team logos, or mascots, let alone feminine ones. If your point is that the people who filmed this have those logos/mascot/hashtag, I don't see how that is relevant to this video since they don't appear in it. I agree that font at the end is terrible, but it could just be chalked up to artistic design- the planet colored purple to go with the red and blue teams (as the ground was purple in last year's kickoff too), and cursive to emphasise the robot drew it with it's tracks. I also agree the quality of the video is objectively worse than the FRC one you linked, but that's not a fair comparison- this year's FTC kickoff is still around the same quality as last year's FTC kickoff video, which seems like a more reasonable measure of improvement. And even if it did have a political statement, I don't see how that would be related to the production quality (e.g. clipping issues)- how much budget would it cost to change a hashtag or mascot that they couldn't fix animation flaws?
Game animation starts at 2:05
They specifically mentioned that parts may not be detached...
Dmitry Kudriavtsev lol, okay kid.
Loved your robot design last year! Good luck!
hahahaha, nice joke!
what do you mean ? did someone use a drone last time ?
im litterally only watching this cause frc is soo far away
yamaan93 me tooo
Oh dear! Field reset looks like a nightmare for volunteers this year
nah Ani just put the blocks back to the designated place and its good... the rover though...
at least they added a space for refs, that is really nice
So nobody is going to mention the drone that flies without an atmosphere? On a serious note though this looks like a great game.
Maybe there is an atmosphere but it's just toxic, so that's why they are wearing space suits?
The Golden Hoodie although it appears that they are pressurized suits. I don’t know I just am excited for the game.

Good luck to everyone this season! Hope we can all make it to worlds 👌👌
Good luck to you too!
Im in it
I made it to worlds last year
I can't wait for competition, good luck everyone!
Good luck to all who compete this year.
I told y'all it was a water game
Water Game Confirmed!
Where did that meme even start
XD
You know I'm desperate for some FRC when I watched the whole skit
Finally the wait is over
The skit in the beginning has cringe levels out of this world. 😬😬
Yeah lmao
Ikr
ikr it was sooo cringy
It's supposed to be fun and corny on purpose!
Your pun level is in this world (but yea, gotta agree with you there)
good luck to everyone participating :)
Honestly, the best way to watch this video is to put it at 0.25 to 0.5 speed. It's Hillarious.
I feel like this is going to a whole lot more challenging than last year. Good Luck Everyone!

I thought we were gonna grab the jewel from the teaser lol good luck teams
7:22 RIP Team Inconceivable
Y’all they brought back Dozer as a guest appearance at the end and now life is complete
Not only at the end.
7:19 : Popcorn machine!
when the music gets quieter at 3:02
intense suspense
Good luck to everyone!
Looks like reffing will be fun this year.
Water game when
Just do MATE
I don't think FTC would put teams in such a sink-or-swim game, a lot of teams would be in over there heads in a water game and would flood First with complaints
-_-
My brain hurts from those puns.....
But seriously, that was good.
Awww yeahhh let's get the game started. Good luck everyone!
My team made it up to regionals! It was a fun experience!
I can’t wait for the competitions to start
scoring starts at 4:55
Oscar worthy acting
No ones gonna mention the end game is literally just like last years frc? You lift yourself from a little latch
Also like RES-Q
And FLL animal allies.
ikr

Nah not really
Can't wait to start the games
I am going to be participating in this competition and I can not be any more exited.The real adrenaline rush though!
@FIRST Tech Challenge Urgent question, How far above the playing field is the Anchor point for the Lander Support Bracket? I cannot find it on any other website.
Those robots yeeting those blocks lol
That will be tough.. lifting up robots again. Also field reset is gonna be interesting.
what are the dimensions of the team marker 4:29
Can anyone find out the dimensions for the lander? Andymark has just the box dimensions and the leg dimensions, but the leg isn't vertical in the video. Where's the latch in relation to the sides? FTC needs to add exact dimensions for teams who can't afford to spend $275 for a real one.
there is a cad model on andy mark for the lander
*Gracious Professionalism* :^))
Does anyone know how we can read the navigation targets?
Better than Res-Q. Practically handing out points.
What code will it use?
7:33 how are you getting cellular on an unknown planet?

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

Challenge starts at 2:20
The robots hand clips through the latch at 4:55
Yeah - I did that. Sigh... caught it after the video deadline.
The referees counted our score wrong and we failed to advance to the semi finals. Still can't understand how they counted 1 as 11. (Korea)
But sir, it only weights 43 pounds on Earth!
The way the bot squashes at 2:38 tho
Yay
this seems so similare to frc whats the difference
Who can spot 2 Dozerbot appearances?
We know the 2019 Oscar nominees 😂😂
They made this game video sound more like something for a challenge, in a science centre, it seems very childish
This is going to be hard
FIRST YEAR DOING THIS

Maybe a reaction of gravitons?
Don't try to apply actual science.
Just watch and cringe.

Wow !!
Finally!

So bad, when i watch it it blocks

The students in the video were FTC Dean's List Winners. They didn't just decide to make it almost all girls.
