@RNR4576 No problem - good luck with your build season and let us know if you have any questions about Smokeynaut!

[Red Nation Robotics @RNR4576]

@BigOrangeRobots Thank you so much for taking time to do a demo with our team today. You answered so many questions to get us off to a great build season.

[STEM School FabLab @STEMFabLab]

.@STEMpythons get an up close look at #Smokeynaut! Big thanks to @BigOrangeRobots from @UTKnoxville. They built their robot in only 3 days and now travel the region sharing lessons with @FRCTeams. Great inspiration for #DestinationDeepSpace! @STEMcha

[Big Orange Robotics @BigOrangeRobots]

We're having a great time visiting local teams this week, and can't wait to see more next week! #omgrobots

[L&N STEMpunks @LNSTEMpunks]

Our team had a fun and successful time with @AERoborunners and @BigOrangeRobotics last meeting! We can’t wait for an amazing season! Thank you so much Big Orange for showing off your robot, we learned so much!

Welcome #EngineeringVols for the first day of 2019 classes. Meet one our newest #robotic #Vols, Smokeynaut. Our @BigOrangeRobots team started their semester three days early to design and build this space-traveling cargo-loader. https://t.co/3isOhG3vNz

[Big Orange Robotics @BigOrangeRobots]

Presenting our first robot, Smokeynaut, made for the 2019 FIRST Robotics Competition season, Destination: Deep Space.

We're getting close...

[Big Orange Robotics @BigOrangeRobots]

Robot building is tough work. In this video, we talk about life during these three days and how we stay on track and productive: https://t.co/fAivWJRH5l

[Big Orange Robotics @BigOrangeRobots]

We're having our first meeting of the day, over lunch, now that everyone has woken up after a late night of work. Hoping to get our mechanisms finalized soon and put on the robot.

[Big Orange Robotics @BigOrangeRobots]

Our most exciting prototype so far: check out what we've been working on to climb the platforms in Destination: Deep Space! https://t.co/c68FoZbse3

[Big Orange Robotics @BigOrangeRobots]

We've been working on a mechanism to score the Destination: Deep Space hatch game piece. Hear more about it and see our prototype in our latest video: https://t.co/G6PhwgxGGv
