On Saturday March 29, HNMCS Robotics embarked on a journey to McMaster University for the ONT District Event. On the first day of the competition, our scouting team worked tirelessly to scout the other teams and come up with ways to strategize our play. Our presentation team also had a great impact presentation. A big thank you to our mentors Kasthuri and Rebecca for helping us prepare!
On the final day of competition, we ranked tenth and proudly became the Alliance 7 captain! Along with teams 6110 and 7475, our team advanced to the third round of playoffs.
Between competitions, an auto was added to Ursula, our 2025 competitive bot. The deep cage hang was also redesigned to improve efficiency: passive guides kept the cage vertical thereby increasing the lift; flex was reduced with custom gearbox mounts; and the gear ratio was increased by a factor of 3. With these changes, Ursula dominated the hang and had the highest end game average.
We’re excited to announce that our team qualified for provincials and is ready to give our all this week!
