History
FIRST TEAM 1086: Blue Cheese DERP DERP HISTORY

iPoe
Team 1086's first robot, iPoe, was built and designed for the 2003 FRC Game, | Stack Attack. It was the teams first robot, and earned the Kyle Boyce Seal of Approval. It operated using a two wheel drive. The robot's low profile enabled it to traverse the bar that ran across the playing field.

Pearl Series
Black Pearl I Black Pearl I was designed for the 2004 FRC Game, | Raising the Bar. The robot was built with a two wheel drive and a helical 1:2 gear ratio. A large arm was a crucal part of Plack Pearl I's design, allowing the robot to pick up the movable goal and score with the multiplayer ball. The robot attended the 2004 NASA/VCU Regional and the 2004 FIRST Championships.

Black Pearl II The robot built for | Tripple Play, the 2005 FRC Game, was named Black Pearl II. The robot navigated using a six wheel drive built on an IFI Chassis. Black Pearl II was able to score within the low goals. The robot could remove tetrahedrons from the auto-loader. The only competition Black Pearl II attended was the 2005 NASA/VCU Regional

Black Pearl III Team 1086 designed and constructed Black Pearl III for the 2006 FRC Game,| Aim High. Black Pearl III's body was built similarly to its predecessors, six wheel drive on an IFI Chassis, but the rest of the robot was completly original. The robot had the ability to pick up proof balls from the ground during gameplay. Camera tracking was used in Autonomus mode, enabling scoring on the high goal. Black Pearl III participated in the 2006 NASA/VCU Regional but did not progress any further.

Black Pearl IV
