2018 FRC - Palmetto Regional
Blue Devil Mechanics competed at a FIRST Robotics Competition in Myrtle Beach, SC, the Palmetto Regional. Unfortunately, we did not make it to the playoffs, but we learnt a lot from our experience. We have perfected our autonomous and improved on our climbing and cube-pickup mechanisms. We are ready to POWER UP at our next regional competition, Rocket City Regional.
We would like to express our utmost appreciation for Team 3140, Flagship and Team 2393, Robotichauns for their gracious professionalism. We would not have been able to perfect our mechanisms without their help. Thank you! |

A trip to Bridgestone
Blue Devil Mechanics visited Bridgestone in Aiken County, South Carolina on May 27th, 2016. We took a tour around their factory, and enjoyed learning about radial tires and the manufacturing process. We also had the opportunity to communicate with their engineers in different fields and heard great stories about them becoming engineers. It turned out to be a pleasant and informative learning experience for Blue Devil Mechanics. We look forward to learning more from Bridgestone.
