The team's light robot is designed to be fast and powerful. Up until the tournament they plan on making subtle adjustments to increase power and agility while improving its collision protection.

Good luck to the Shiloh Robotics Team! Schedules, updates and criteria for the FTC World Championship can be found on their website.
