I don't have a link to 8634's homepage (let me know and I'll update!), but here's their BlueAlliance page: www.thebluealliance.com/team/8634 ------------------------------------------------------ If you're interested in finding a team or attending an event, here's the official team search from FIRST: www.firstinspires.org/team-event-search And if you want to know more about any specific team (like a link to their website) you can probably find it on Blue Alliance: www.thebluealliance.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ This is a world map that shows events and teams. I'm not sure how accurate it is because it doesn't look official, but it's a lot easier to search by eye!

First Robotics is fantastic, especially at the age bracket its targeting. As someone who grew up when Robot Wars was first starting, FIRST would have totally changed my life trajectory as far as skills are concerned. Well done for applying your mentorship talents towards a group of peeps that are going to continue far beyond anything we can think of!

No kidding! When I was their age, we had a single robotics competition that was part of the Science Olympiad, but nothing like this. I would have loved it. I think the coordinators have fine tuned the rules since then. A lot of the teams I saw back then were building Lego kits for their submissions....

It's invigorating to see how excited these young people are.

Thanks for uploading all of these! I've loved watching everyone get to nerd out over different aspects of their builds.

Man this series of videos has been so cool to me. To see all these kids get so excited about engineering is awesome.

I love you sharing these pit interviews! This relatively young team has a simple machine, but all the fundamentals are done very well. A high grip drive, lots of power, an effective end-game, and a creative defense mechanism. These are the robots I really like to see!

These builds are really impressive.

FIRST Robotics is such a great competition.

this is absolutely too cool. thanks for sharing these team interviews!

This is my favorite team you've interviewed, hands down

Wow, this is a great bit of literal thinking from a young team, wish them all the best for the future...

Great example of "big picture" thinking... If the goal is to score the most goals, then it's not just a matter of increasing your number. It's WIDENING the gap between your number and the opponents'. Lateral thinking like THIS is the reason great discoveries are made and also why the scientific field often gets into "ruts"... Times where they don't seem to make much headway in their respective fields. Many formal scientific teams refuse to stop and say "what if...?"

0:57 nice pun

Wow. Impressive on so many levels!

No-one called Bill in the team? 😂

First (robotics)!

I'm a little afraid that the detour from your normal content may risk you losing subscribers. KZreadrs often put such diverse material in a secondary channel.

I'm definitely not leaving. To be provided with this much content from AP is amazing, and I totally appreciate his efforts. Sometimes a departure from the norm is refreshing. If Alpha Phoenix is interested in it, then I am. I limit my exposure to KZread by focussing on facts and subscribe to a few high quality creators.
