Team Typhoon – A New “Challenger” Has Entered the Ring

After their stirring success of winning the STEM Research award at the VEX V5 competition last year with CTL’s Sponsorship, Team Novo is back again but, this time with new allies, a new challenge and thus a brand-new robot.
With Team Cyberforce, the winners of last year’s VEX V5 Poster Design Challenge (and fellow Queen Elizabeth Grammar School members) now joining forces with Team Novo, they are coming at this year’s trial ‘Spin Up’ together as Team Typhoon. CTL has bought the brains behind Team Typhoon’s new robot “Challenger” providing the integral V5 Brain that allows the team to relay real time commands and programme autonomous instructions for “Challenger” to perform in both of “Spin Up’s” ‘Driver’ and ‘Autonomous’ game modes. The team were very grateful for CTL’s continued support and although it is early in the season, they feel confident that with the new parts CTL has provided and their victor’s pedigree that they take ‘Challenger’ above and beyond last years success. Team Leader Zak said “Efficiency is key” and the team already have a strategy to make the best out of their sponsored components as they get set to qualify in regionals this February. CTL wishes Team Typhoon the best of luck at this year’s competition and eagerly awaits to see a fully built ‘Challenger’ enter the ring.
